What's happening at the VMG Booth: - Slab display — see what verified condition actually looks like in person - On-site submission drop-off - 15% off every submission taken at the show (weekend-only) - I'll be there both days for meet-and-greet, and the kind of conversations that don't happen over DMs. Coming? Drop a comment — would love to know who from the community is going to be there. — Drew
