hey guys, would just like to ask for the pros and cons of using paint markers over ordinary markers and when to use the water-based ones and oil-based ones, thank you ![:)](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/smiley.gif) Yes, the oil-based paint markers are generally better. One caveat with them, though, is that they are more likely to smudge because they take take longer to dry - so you don't want to ruin your new autograph!

They work really well. You can check out some of my signed figures in my Meet and Greet thread: forum.wrestlingfigs.com/thread/328932/ambrose-natalya-autograph-signing-reportSome of my favourite ones in that thread are Finn Balor and Ricky Steamboat.

So I met Dean Ambrose today at Adventureland in Vorhees, New Jersey. I have not been to many autograph signings but this experience was quite terrible. They did not offer printable tickets. Instead, you had to stand in a line to pick up your ticket that was just a petty cash receipt. I waited for about ten minutes while the guy was looking through these books for our receipt. After he "couldn't find it", he wrote out a new one and gave us #100. So instead of keeping track correctly, I received the next possible number. From about #98 back, it was all people who's tickets were "lost". They were very unprepared and unorganized. After seeing Kevin Owens last week at iPlay America, this was a disaster. When we finally met Dean, it seemed as if he was pretty fed up with the long line and process too. He did not say a word to us besides "enjoy" while we were walking out. Also for how expensive the tickets were, I was expecting a better quality picture. Pretty upset with the experience but still found a way to enjoy it by talking to fans while waiting on the line. ![](http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r166/dshee46/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_2633.jpg)

Experiences like these are why I never pay for formal signings outside of maybe a WM axxess (and even that's just GA). I'll put up with a line if it's a free promotional signing, but the ones that are disgustingly overpriced I don't blink an eye at missing.

Platinum was $150 Gold was $100 Base was $50 My girlfriend and I bought the Gold tickets. $100 is not totally expensive but for an experience like this, it's definitely expensive and very frustrating overall.

Is anyone collecting base cards from Undisputed 2015? I have quite a few base cards that I don't need and would sell them cheaply. They're the thick cards. Anyone interested?

I found a complete set (66) of WCW Topps cards from 1992 in a junk shop, all in really good condition for £3.
I just bought them on impulse because its not every day you find cool stuff randomly like that. But I have no idea what to do with them.
The set does feature Scott Hall for the first time (to my knowledge) as Diamond Studd.
