MHC Local News - Poker Tournament - Upcoming Auction -Lower Comics Prices Howdy! Only four days remain for you to sign up to play in our 3rd bi-monthly Texas Hold'em Poker Tournament. The game will be played this Saturday morning, starting at 11 AM, at our Jason St. Mega-Store. Everyone is invited to play in this fun game, with the winner receiving a $1,000 donated shopping spree at Mile High Comics! Winners of Last Tournament So you know, Mile High Comics donated the five gift certificate prizes ($1,000, $250, and 3 X $100) to this game as a part of our continuing effort to help those in need in our community. The proceeds from this Saturday's game will go to buy warm clothing and personal toiletries for Denver's homeless teens who are served by the wonderful volunteers of Urban Peak.. Your cost to play in the game is only $25, with 100% of that amount being donated. With our first cold and rain of the season predicted to arrive this weekend, the timing of your donation could not be better to help some kids in need... To register for this Saturday's poker game, visit any Mile High Comics location this week, and drop off your registration fee. Our staff will then send me an e-mail, and I will personally register you for the game. You can also write to me directly, at chuckrozanski@gmail.com. Finally, you can also register at Jason St. on the morning of the game. Please bear in mind, however, that we can only seat 64 players, and our last couple of games have had an average 40-50 participants. To be certain that you have a chair reserved at one of our eight tables, I encourage you to preregister. Past Auction Lot Past Auction Lot In other news, we will be hosting another of our benefit auctions a week from Saturday. We will begin setting this auction up on Saturday afternoon (after poker tournament ends...), and should have everything in place by Tuesday. Our auction will contain 50 lots of 8 items each for Mile High Comics, and then another 50 individual items being sold to benefit Rainbow Alley, a refuge for GLBTQ kids who are being bullied, or who have been forced to leave home after they come out to their parents. Christmas is coming, so we are trying to raise a little money to help these young people who are living under difficult circumstances. Donations of comics, toys, or any other collectibles for the benefit portion of the Rainbow Alley auction will be gladly accepted. ALL-AMERICAN MEN OF WAR #37 ALL-AMERICAN WESTERN #114 BATMAN #120 I will close by mentioning that we have recently been auditing all of our back issues at the Mile High Comics Jason St. Mega-Store. Aside from discovering a plethora of Golden Age and Silver Age comics, we also have come to realize that a great many of our sticker prices on our older issues in the store were never adjusted downward after the major price decrease that we put into effect on our website last April. Our inventory team is fixing that problem right now, with prices on quite a few issues dropping by more than half (!) as a result. Visit Jason St this week, and ask to see revised pricing on any of our Golden Age, Silver Age, and Bronze Age titles. I think you will be very pleasantly surprised. Happy collecting!
