Benders Books and Cards in Hampton, Virginia

The first comic shop I visited while on vacation in Virginia Beach was Benders Books and Cards in Hampton, VA. This store was jam-packed with stuff! Comics, toys, trading cards, books, cats. Most of the store was divided into genres. Superhero, monsters, Star Wars, Star Trek, western, anime, war, adult, etc. If you don't mind digging a little bit, you just may find a few treasures.

Here's the stuff I bought:

Hulk bubble bath container (1990) for $6. Bride of Frankenstein cup from Wendy's (1982) for $2.95. Two Marvel 7/11 cups, Nighthawk and Hercules (1975) for $3.95 each. When I went to check out, I noticed the Hercules cup was cracked. He gave a couple of bucks off. Ralph Snart promo card (1992) for 49¢. Wizard "Christmas Eve in Brooklyn" promo card for 95¢.

And here's the photos I took inside the store:

Atlantic City: It's A Toy Store

A little over a week ago my wife and I spent a week in Atlantic City, NJ. I'm gonna (hopefully) make some posts about all of the cool things we saw there.

First up is toy store not too far away from Atlantic City in Richland, NJ. It's called "It's A Toy Store". They had a pretty good selection of vintage toys. Unfortunately there credit card machine wasn't working and I didn't have a lot of cash on me. But, I still picked up a couple of cool items for my collection. A Whitman Incredible Hulk round puzzle from 1982 for $3 and a 1975 7-11 Marvel Comics Dracula cup for $5.
