As usual Saturday is the Auction, and Sunday is the Market place.

They mention early buyer passes this year for $25.. might be a must if its anything like last year.

I'll be there Sunday as usual, I might have a few things with me that I'll post in classifieds figure meetup is easier then shipping.

Yeah this early buyer admission price doesn't sit well with me. If I had something I was on the hunt for then I might change that tune. My predictions are that the usual suspects will gain access to the show via vendor tickets and negate even the early buyer premium.

I'll stick with the normal and just putz around like I always do.

Yup you and me both ! I still look forward to it

Doors open for the swap meet Sunday @9AM, I should be there right around 9- 9:30 depending on what the Mrs. tosses at me.

Kind of a bust this year, many open spaces amongst the usual vendors and very sparse pickings. I managed to locate 1 or 2 possible donor teardrop lights for one of my projects. Now I just need to locate a green dome for one or the other.

I purchased a Green, and Magenta dome from Rescue Market for the 184/284s this was the only thing I went in for initially. The colors game out real sharp, Gary did a great job on repro. I should have a video out at some point in the near future reviewing them.

I brought back some Aeros.. no shock there right.. Both are uncommon, one very much so. The AD4800, and a Model 25 EAH.

The tear drops are an SVP and a Deitz.
