I'm surprised I have not seen a thread on this yet. I pretty amped up about it since it is going to be a first time for me. Of course I will be there all week because I am sharing a corner table with a friend.

Edited to add that I will be at booth 515

    I think I am going on Friday. I have a few coins I want to drop off with GC at the very least.

    I'll be there Friday only. Attending the LSCC meeting then the bourse.

    It is not that life is short, but that you are dead for so very long.

    I was going to go and then they slapped on the "admission fee" on exhibits so, instead, I'll be going to the Summer ANA and have already sent in my exhibit application.

    Great .... I hope to see a lot of show reports. With this many attendees (and likely a lot more members as well), we can get a great cross section of activity and sales...Cheers, RickO

    Going to try and make it Thursday afternoon and potentially Saturday as well for a bit.

    How are the weekday crowds at these 3 day shows? I am surprised that they are Thurs-Sat rather than Fri-Sun because people typically have day jobs. I am taking a vacation day to go on Friday.

    Nope.
    I withdrew all support for CSNS when they began charging for educational exhibits. Their position is contrary to all precepts of encouraging expansion of knowledge and also contrary to the ANA Charter - if that has any meaning today.

    I'll be at table 804 Friday and Saturday. I could only manage one day off work this time.

    Charmy along with Rick Snow are stalwarts, unlike the majority of the "elite sellers" they stick it out until the end.

    Thanks for the heads-up, I won't be looking for you than.

    I still refuse to support that greedy organization. 25 Years of doing shows and have never experienced what I did with them! It was my 1st time and last time doing their show. They can take the $50 they took from me and shove it up you know where. LOL! That $50 has cost them probably 20 years of a corner table bourse fee!

    Greedy?

    I overpay EVERY TIME I go to the CSNS but I have to do it...……..and it's stupid on my part.
    Sell your wares on the net and move on like (most) everyone else.

    I'm a man of principal. 20 years ago $50 was a bit more than today....but more than that was the hassle getting in to the show to set up. That show was run by folks that acted like the Gustapo! Surprised I did see a Hail Hitler from a staff member while I was there!

    I’m sure those $50 corner tables went empty all those years. That Hitler comment was not necessary
