Just to verify, I was planning on doing some MTG sales and trades this year. There is a designated space for this?

Probably CSI, SCG, and any of the other retailers that buy and sell cards. There might be some trading going on in the CCG area but again, I think it's mostly low key and ad-hoc unless there's a meetup I don't know about.

There are vendors you can sell to in the exhibit hall, which RocknRollaAyatollah mentioned. If you mean buy/sell from private individuals, do yourself a favor and just DO NOT do it in the ICC. I don't think there is rule about trading, nor do I know how they would catch you doing it exactly, but might want to check.

Yeah, my assumption is trading is perfectly fine, but there's probably binder grinders who toe the line between traders and vendors because they have suitcases full of stuff to move. You can flip cards at pretty much any booth that sells them, and unless you're dealing with huge sums of money, you'll be able to get cash in hand. (I sold some judge foils to SCG and got cash; the guy a seat or two over with the beta black lotus did not.)

so, since someone asked, let me remind you all the deets on  shots motherfucking wednesday Wed July 31, we're all gonna go down to the Rathskeller in Indianapolis and drink our faces off. They have an outdoor garden that can accomodate a failure of goons, the beers are huge and the food is good. https://www.rathskeller.com/ Location: 401 E Michigan St, Indianapolis, IN 46204 This is not a walkable distance. Share an Uber or something, I'm not your mother. (1.2 miles per google. Might be walkable if you're the type that does those things.) Time: July 31st, 6pm - whenever they boot us out or we get bored Be there and be square!

Just lol if you don’t carry a 32oz hydroflask with ice cold beer around at all times during Gencon. Quarex gets even hotter with beer goggles.

Gen Con is pretty socially liberal as far as corporate entities go. I would have hoped they vetted their politics before hand but who knows. Also, not too surprised on the bent considering the founder of this soda pusher also co-founded a 501c3 for vets and is a vet himself. Regardless, this does make me less likely to buy a cup from them, though honestly $40 for a bunch of diet root beer doesn't sound too great to me despite my intense need to collect all things with Gen Con stamped on them.

Pretty excited to discover the thing that would make me miss Shots Wednesday this year early enough to work on mitigating it! Almost certainly going to be late but I am going there bros.

Love Handle is on the end of Mass Ave. now, they're open for breakfast and lunch (7-3 usually), and is one of the best places to eat in the city: https://www.facebook.com/LoveHandleIndy/ The Eagle for fried chicken, hearty comfort food, and beer: https://www.eaglerestaurant.com/ And an old favorite of mine, Bazbeaux pizza: https://www.bazbeaux.com/ Shapiro's, a cafeteria-style place with a ton of great food (pastrami on rye is king): https://shapiros.com/ If you feel like putting some distance between you and the con for an evening, not too far down Virginia Ave. you've got the Fountain Square neighborhood, featuring: Milktooth, another gourmet breakfast/lunch spot: https://www.milktoothindy.com/ Bluebird, a nicer dinner restaurant: https://bluebeardindy.com/ Chilly Water, a local brewpub (the blood orange beer, Blood on the Tracks, is amazing): https://www.facebook.com/chillywaterbrewing/ Pure, another great place for lunch and dinner with healthy, fresh options being their staple: http://www.pureeatery.com/Fountain-Square/ La Margarita, for tacos and tequila: https://lamargaritaindy.com/ Really there are a ton of great places to eat and drink around town without having to set foot in a chain restaurant the entire time. I think I've spent more on food and drink than gaming the last few years.

Repeating restaurants from the original post?!? That's a paddlin' Everyone knows the professional Gen-Connio only goes to as many restaurants as there are evenings, eating a hotel breakfast and stuffing your face with granola bars for lunch to preserve Precious Exhibit Hall Time O.K. this rule may be bent at times. And I GUESS if you do not have a hotel breakfast or hate the idea of eating lunch from a backpack you are excused Druggeddwarf posted:As the foreigner coming in and not knowing their Five guys from their Trader Joes I appreciate any food links available.

I'm only really going to do my own shows and meet with network friends and fans and stuff, so I love the lunch recommendations. And if you're talking about Fountain Square don't forget about Kuma's Corner (https://kumascorner.com/location/kumas-indy/), the metal themed burger restaurant which is freakin' crazy good.

NO LUNCH Kuma's Corner is great, though. I went a few times in Chicago, but unlike when I burned out forever on the Ram by going off-season in Seattle, going to Kuma's just makes me want to keep going to Kuma's.

And for all the trash-talking I do about Lunch Eaters, if you are having a great time at Gen-Con with cool people you are still doing it right. Well. Unless you do like all of our nightmares about Gen-Con always do, and realize you just woke up and it is Sunday and you never went to the convention

I enjoy the meat sweats from Primanti Bros at least once a year with you folks. Doubly so when they have shot girls doing promos giving out drinks and taking terrible polaroids of us.

The good news is you basically do not need to, as plenty of people forget items and they just do not charge you for anything that does not arrive. The bad news if you just want to feel clean about it is... I have no idea. Just grab something absurd from your nerd paraphernalia to sell at T.O.V.A. and change the item; problem solved.
