Work the table. Read the vendor. Talk the price down — and quit before someone gets annoyed enough to throw you out.
Chatty, loves the hobby. Build rapport before you push.
Distracted and time-pressed. Strike fast, keep it moving.
Knows every comp. Subtlety works; bullying backfires.
Table Talk is a card-show bargaining game. Each vendor offers a card at a marked-up price, and it's on you to talk them down. Read their mood, pick the right tactic, and know when to buy or walk — but push too hard and they'll have you thrown out of the convention.
Your score is the total money you save off asking price across every card you buy in a run. Modern cards are the safe warm-up, Vintage the big swings. Walking away is free — only an angry vendor ends the run.
