Review
I, too, was at the show today. As Jason mentioned, it was a lot smaller than envisioned and had a very poor turnout. PSA and James Spence were set up, but had very few customers. The same with Huggins & Scott Auctions and Goldin Auctions. The show reminded me a lot of a large mall show, the only difference was that here the dealers were all together in one area (large exhibit hall).
Admission was free and there were a bunch of former Redskins signing free autographs. There was a nice crowd in that area for a short time, until everyone who wanted autographs got them. I personally enjoyed the show a great deal, though. It gave me a chance to talk to some of the Virginia/North Carolina dealers that don’t set up in Chantilly. I understand that there will be a February 2014 show scheduled at this same location, but I wouldn’t bet on any more future shows here. All of the dealers that I spoke to had a horrible show so far.
I’d be curious on what the opinions were of others after attending Saturday and/or Sunday.
