Yep, there aren't any great shops in Houston. I used to shop at Bedrock. Had a folder, spent a good deal of money there. I had minimates on my pull list. I came in one day to pick up my comics and stuff and they were having one of their big twice a year sales. Toys were 50% off or something. So I've got minimates that came out that week with my comics and they won't give me the sale price because "they were held". I could understand if they were the only ones left in the store (meaning me having them held kept them from someone else who got there earlier) but there were at least three of each sitting on the counter. I told them, fine, I'll take those on the counter that you didn't hold then. That didn't fly; so I let them keep them. I thought it was ridiculous to shaft the regular weekly customer but let any other person get a deal. Decided to order stuff online after that.
My BSG wave came from there at $6.99 a pop. I thought that was a decent price.
Mr. Carl! He was an ornery old cuss. I never had so much fun being insulted. lol
That other store was probably the other BSI they had (on Westfield or something like that. It was right off of Clearview.)
Louisiana Double Play.
The shop on Oak St (corner of Dublin if I remember right) pre-Katrina was More Fun Comics. Are you saying someone opened a new shop with the old name?
