SouthernJet Posted April 21, 2009 Author Share Posted April 21, 2009 Best antique show and you're only going to spend 4 hours? Are you afraid you're going to miss the early bird at Bob Evans? Its enough time, trust me.. I know each booth by heart now, so I bypass the ones where I know I have zip interest..I can slowly walk by a place and see immediately if worth poking in.. Been doing this for 30 years, and this particular show for over 20 years.. I mainly browse to see if something I like, then hit the 10 or so main dealers who know what I like and shop for me..
