    Went to this swap last year. Was dissapointed. Small, inside a sports complex. Aisles were so narrow, you could almost not stop to look at anything. Not good if you are claustrophobic or don't like crowds.

    One week from tomorrow !

    Pappajohn,
    Sorry you didn't enjoy it, but that's the first complaint I've heard. The aisles are fairly wide, but there is a big crowd when it first opens. I guess the fact that were crowds, shows that it's a pretty good swap meet. I always find something to buy - a lot of times I wind up spending more than I sell.
    I guess you can't please everybody though...................

    Tagman-

    It probably didn't help that I drove an hour and a half to get there!

    I'm sure I'll go again, probably not this year.

    Well, I was less than impressed...more "collectable" stuff that I don't need.

    Despite the weather it was still a good time. As always many of us got to catch up with old friends not seen over the winter. I agree the stuff is not as plentiful and may be different from what it was 20 or 30 years ago at this event. Good news is I came home with a lot less parts than what I had brought to sell. Looking forward to next year.
