Mark is, of course, dead on for a show's mix.
I'm going to find out on Sunday how the dealer mix I ended up is going to work out. We did sell out of our tables with me using a first come/first serve method but I know enough of the dealers that I'm comfortable with the final selection.
What is also interesting, is because of the very reasonable table prices )$25). I figure about 40 percent of my dealers are actually collectors looking to move their duplicates or dealers that usually do not set up in the DFW area. Many times, those dealers have great deals because their mission is to raise funds to add to their collection. I'm personally excited about the mix we have because to me, these type of new dealers are usually great to deal with,
After the show, I'll also notate what each person brought so I can make adjustments if needed for future shows.
But Mark is correct, while WE on this board want to see old material, the great majority of collectors could not care about a tuff back on a T206 card but are certainly interested in a Mike Trout or Bryce Harper card.
Regards
Rich
