I picked up a flyer advertising it at the Marlboro show. I hope it is on... I took the day off already!
Because it's halloweeeeeen!!!
I didn't see a listing for it and missed the flyer at Marlboro.
In speaking with a dealer friend in Marlboro Sat . . Several dealers are starting to get pissed with the promoter continuing to increase the table price. Apparently they're going up another $10 per table. And will be having less tables. This goes for all their shows.
i go to the fitchburg one just because it's local, judging by the last one i went to it appears that a lot of people share that mindset because when i was there it was dead.
if they keep raising the table prices they are going to kill their own show... genius. it was also at the last fitchburg show that i saw the "pre-ban" c-products mags and the $1,000 WASR.![[laugh]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/012.gif "Laugh [laugh]")

The promoter is "all about money" (hers)!
There are other, similar issues that led a lot of vendors to drop out of her shows across the board. This goes back years, so it's nothing new.

I hope to have some cash saved by that show so I can pick up my Sig
I hope to have some cash saved by then so I can afford the entrance fee.
The last show there was terrible. I told the guy I work for part time I wont do that show again. Its a waste of a weekend. I would rather be at the range.The promoters are as friendly as some of the mods on this siteonly kidding guys....I don't want to get kicked , suspended, banned etc.

If he wants the help you can tell him I will take your place haha. I really would if he needs it, he knows I love guns. This will be my first Fitchburg show I guess my hopes won't be too high

I might try to make this show, I think I'm going to be in town that weekend (not 100% sure yet). I still have yet to attend a single gun show.
This promoter sux,, continually increasing the table and entrance fees, it now costs $10 to get into the show at the Big E on top of the $5 they charge to park. My last trip to the Big E will be my LAST trip to the Big E! A lot of the gun dealers have been replaced by flea market dealers, if i wanted to go to a flea market i would go to Rietta Ranch.The more they raise the dealer and entrance fees the fewer who will attend.I have it on good authority thier attendance at the last Big E was dismal

I was thinking of jumping on the motorcycle and heading over there just as a destination to ride to. But $10 for 200-300 tables is a waste of time. Escpecially since out of those 200 tables, you might get 50 guys selling guns and the rest selling crap. While I love gun shows, they are more and more becoming a huge waste of time.
