    I know they aren't the best shows evar or anything close to it, but there is a toy show at the fairgrounds this weekend and we haven't done anything in quite awhile!

    Is that the Inside Pitch show? If so, look for Danny w/ Lost Treasures Toys, he'll be passing out flyers for Charticon!

    Arkvander is right, I am not actually sure where we will be located but you can't miss us if you come looking for toys! We will have 2 tables drop by even if it is just to say hey. I would like to meet more board members!

    To be quite honest, the inside pitch shows almost always underwhelm me. But, at least LT and even Crowemag are going to set up at this one, so there's hope. For me, this is more of a "hey guys let's pal around on saturday" thing :)

    I agree with you Scotty, the crazy thing about these shows is I am always scared of not being ables to cover my cost. From what I understand the Greensboro Show is large, twice the size of this show. I hope to use these shows to get our name out, meet cool people and hopefully be one of the small guys who offer better prices than the big guys.

    I would not mind going out for a drink with any board members Saturday night after the show.

    I've been to their shows in Charlotte, Greensboro, and Hickory. Greensboro is by far the biggest and best one! They actually had a huge amount of cool toys at the Greensboro show.

    Friday?
    Well, I plan to go, even thought my latest obsession is actually Laserdiscs instead of toys.
