Devilsguy Posted July 6, 2016 Report Share Posted July 6, 2016 Ten days away and haven't seen the usual topic for this at this time of year. Who is going to be there? Guest speaker is Keith Jones and new grab bag concept this year. Who is doing the grab bag? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfitz804 Posted July 6, 2016 Report Share Posted July 6, 2016 I am still considering going. Not quite sure yet. I do not believe I will be participating in any grab bag, I'm not a grab bag kind of guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devilsguy Posted July 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 Not only am I going, but I actually signed up for a table so I will be displaying. Please feel free to drop by and say hello and try on and touch all the jerseys you want. However, that is only after you ate a plate of nachos and buffalo wings from Willie McBride's around the corner of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brilliant! Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 I'm sure you'll end up right next to me. I don't know why but the first-timers have seemed to land next to me for the last couple years. Maybe Stu is screwing with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm actually going to ask Stu to place me by another collector I am buddies with. Let's see what he says. Maybe he will be on one side and you on the other lol.

jsh139 Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 Forgive my ignorance, but when you setup a table is the intention to sell the jerseys? Or is it mainly to show off your collection and chat/network with other collectors? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is it mainly to show off your collection and chat/network with other collectors? Nah that's actually a common question. There are two types of tables at the show: Dealer tables and Collectors tables. Dealer tables are $250 while collector tables are fee (well you have to pay admission of course lol). Main difference is that Dealer tables can buy/sell/trade during the show while collectors tables you can't buy and sell. I do believe trading is allowed. I got a collector table and just want to show off and see what other people have. I might have a gamer or two I might be willing to trade if the right jersey comes in through the door though.

jsh139 Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 Ahh, that makes sense. That's cool. Now I understand why there's a $250 dealer fee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilsguy Posted July 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 Yeah that's why the fee. Unless otherwise, from what I've been hearing/seeing it is looking like the amount of dealers this year will be low again. Last year there were 2, and the only ones I know for sure who will be there are the same 2 from last year. Hoagie (Iceviolence), Joe Tomon (J&J Distributing) and Steiner used to come to expos in the past, but they have been missing. Hoagie used to be at every Meigray expo up until 2-3 years ago. Not sure why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brilliant! Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 I miss the days when Milt would bring all his stuff and the people ended up just flocking to his table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilsguy Posted July 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Confirmed with Stu today about my table and that I will be next to my buddy. I might still be next to you though Brilliant lol. I will be bringing about 30-35ish jerseys with me. Summer sale terms should be out any day now. Wouldn't be surprised if it was on Wednesday/Thursday/Friday time frame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I've heard over the years, he has burned enough bridges to where not sure if people would flock to his table if he came. Or they would flock, but not for good reasons.
