A friend of mine has a both at C2E2, he mostly sells buttons and t-shirts. If he were to make some GPK buttons and sell them at $1 each would there be any interest? He said he'd make some if people would buy them. Let me know.

Anyone is who attending c2e2 that might an extra bns2 pixilated perry they could sell me would be awesome. Just went through my binder and couldnt believe I was missing 1 card for this set. I also need the adam bomb BOX header for ans1 2014 if anyone has one for sale. This way I don't have to pay ebay shipping gauging prices.

Alright guys. I just got confirmation from Topps that they are sending 2 Gold Series 1 MiniKins, 2 Black Series 2 MiniKins, plus their common variants as prizes for people that attend the GPKUG Con (we'll raffle them off). How awesome is that? To recap: 2 Golds from Series 1 2 Blacks from Series 2 2 Commons from Series 1 2 Commons from Series 2 Plus all of the other stuff I already mentioned before.

If any Chicagoans are in this group of attendees, please recommend a place we can all meet Friday night for dinner. I am looking forward to the event. I am picking up a commissioned gpk card from Mr. Pingitore on Saturday and will enjoy meeting him and you all next weekend!

If you are attending the show please PM me your cell number and when you are arriving. I want to be able to get in contact with you on Friday so we can all meet up somewhere.

Deep Dish Pizza: Giordono's - 135 E Lake St, Chicago IL 60601 or Uno's (I would however suggest going diagonally across the street to Due's, as that location is less busy, exact same restaurant/food, just not the 'original' location which isn't really a big deal at all) Due's - 619 N Wabash Ave, Chicago IL 60611
The wait is LONG! (45min-1hr) No reservations accepted, when you arrive you place your order, then ~45min later you get your table, then drinks/other food, then Pizza! Both are good.
If everyone gives me or cory their hotel locations I can try and figure out possible good locations.
If you have any Chicago questions let me know.
