Don't know why, but I found myself with some spare time today and went back.
Spent about 30 mins talking to the really nice older couple who sell the bore snakes. Bought two more.

One bit of advice to some of the sellers: try to engage the people walking by. I spent 17 years in retail so I know it sucks spending hours trying to talk to looky-lous, but sitting there staring at the floor or asleep isn't going to get people to be interested in your product.


A lot on cool guns there that I didn't see yesterday. Glad I went back.

They are really nice folks. The are from Lewiston, ID. I was next to them at several Puyallup shows, so I chatted with them a lot and still sop and say "hi" at other shows.

ROGER THAT!
It shocks me to see other vendors asleep at the helm. I see it all the time.
