Glad to hear you did well Randy. You had some great deals on your tables. I saw many bargains no one capitalized on. Wish I had more money to spend!

Sadly Matt, a lot of people would rather complain about the WAC show than actually look for deals. I had 10 tables of great deals and a bunch of people went away very happy.
I was surprised at some of the deals that were still around at the end of the show.
Good to see you.

I'll own up to that
I was negative in the other thread but at the end of the weekend I did well. Got a few things at a reasonable price and met some great people that I will be in contact with in the future
A big part of my problem is that I don't talk very well, physical problem that doesn't let me talk (Spasmodic dysphonia)

If you've got some cash in your pocket, there are good deals at the shows. A lot of guys are thinning out their collections as they get older (myself included). I saw a guy with several LNIB Springfield Armory 1911s in the $450-500 range. He even had a brand new Colt Cobra for $550. Surprisingly, most of them were still sitting there Saturday afternoon.
Sure, there will always be a few guys with crazy prices, but the majority of vendors are actually there to SELL. It's a buyer's market right now. Come out to the shows if you've been gone a while.

Like the fall of the Berlin Wall we now have the passing of the Baby Boomers and their wares.

Glad to hear there are actually some good deals to finally be found at the WAC show. After being a member for several years didn't bother renewing.
Maybe it's just the Monroe show but while there are some interesting things most everything was overpriced with only a few deals to be had or you paid what you had to to get something that was hard to find normally.
May have to go to the next one and see if it's worth considering again.

I hate to admit it, but a lot of the good deals are grabbed by other vendors before the show opens to the public. I would guess there are a few guys who set up a table just to get in early. However, if more people got tables, for whatever reason, there'd be more stuff to look at...
