How fast does the merch sell out

A friend of a friend had her booth sell out in a half hour at bronycon and others will still have a lot of things that never sold at the end of the con, it just depends. I'd just suggest that if you know you want something buy it quickly if you don't want someone else to snatch it up. You can always ask a seller to hold something for you but I wouldn't depend on that.

As someone who was a regular at anime, sci-fi, and comic cons, most good stuff was gone midway through Friday, maybe Saturday.  I'd go with Simon's advice and try to get something you want as soon as possible.

Best advice is always, if you see something you REALLY WANT... GET IT.

Don't look around for something else or a cheaper price.

Chances are, when you go back... it may not be there.  

If not certain... ask the dealer to "hold" it for you for a short time (like an hour).  Most will.

It depends on what it is. Plushies usually fly off the shelves but buttons and badges sell a little slower. Generally if it's an item that cannot be made again at the con or in a hotel room (plushies, shirts, glassware, etc,) grab it.

At the end of Friday I had three wonderbolts hoodies left. Saturday, they were sold out.

 

I didn't sell out of my tees or Frittur hoodies. Those will have to go online.

How fast does the merch sell out at Babs con?

 

Depends on the item and convention. Typically plushies sellout within the first day if it's good and no matter the price, then the posters, then the clothing articles (T's, Jackets, etc.) Don't expect to buy much by the third day.

 

If there are any unique items that only that vender sells (Like I remember Aprons and unusual items), they'll sell pretty quickly too.

 

This is all based off experience buying stuff at conventions.
