Tips For Seeing The Show
The few tips we can offer here are gleaned from years of personal experience at the Show.
1. If you frequent the Show, you probably have a dealer or two who works actively with and for you, to find the items you're looking for. If you don't see something: ASK. Get to know the dealers who sell items you collect. You'll see them year after year, and once they know you're serious, they'll pick up things with you in mind.
2. Have personal cards printed with your name and phone number and pass them out to dealers with the item you're looking for jotted down.
3. Know what you are looking at: buy some books on the items you collect before the Shows. You can learn a lot, and be more confident in your purchasing decisions.
4. Because of the sheer size of the show, area-wise, if you see an item that you are interested in, but are not ready to commit just yet, be sure to get the name, booth number and field the dealer is in, so you can easily find your way back. After hours of browsing, walking and talking it's easy to forget where you were when you saw that prized item.
