Can you share a specific Vermont Comic Con horror story about lost items?

One horror story could be about long lines. People might have had to wait for hours in the sun just to get in, missing out on early events or meet - and - greets. It was really frustrating for fans who had planned their day carefully.

Sure. There was a time when a comic shop received a shipment of highly anticipated new releases. But due to a shipping error, the comics were all wet and moldy. The shop owner had already taken pre - orders from customers and had to break the bad news. It was a nightmare as customers were disappointed and some even demanded compensation. The owner had to deal with angry customers and also try to get a refund or replacement from the distributor.

In most cases, no. Reselling items from Comic-Con may violate the event's terms and conditions and potentially be illegal depending on the items and local laws.

It can be. Some Comic Con exclusive items increase in value over time and can be a great investment. But it depends on the popularity and rarity of the item.

Sure. I know someone who ordered a family meal that was supposed to come with sides like fries and salad. When the order arrived, only the main dish was there. No fries or salad. It was a big disappointment especially since they were having guests over and were counting on the complete meal.

Sure. There was a seller who unknowingly bought a batch of what they thought were genuine branded accessories to sell on Depop. They listed them at a reasonable price. A buyer purchased one and later reported it as counterfeit. Depop took action against the seller, even though the seller was also a victim. The seller lost money, had their reputation damaged, and had to deal with the stress of the whole situation.

Sure. There was a group of hikers. One of them had a Yaesu radio for communication. As they got deeper into the mountains, the radio suddenly stopped working. They couldn't call for help or communicate with each other. They were stranded, and the silence from the radio was really scary. It was later discovered that a small component in the radio had broken due to the rough handling during the hike.

Then there are the panel problems. You could be really excited for a particular panel, but due to technical difficulties, the audio or video doesn't work properly. Or the panel could be over - crowded and you end up having to stand outside and not be able to see or hear anything.

Sure. Once I was in Vermont and saw a moose casually strolling through a small town. It walked right up to a local ice - cream parlor and just stood there, as if it was waiting for a cone. People were both scared and amused at the same time.

I'm not sure exactly, but you can check the official Comic Con website or their social media pages for the most accurate and up-to-date information.
