I don't think people will. Andrew and Ryan set expectations plus continue to let people know what type of event this is. i'm looking at this event as more of a "get together" and "display show" than a "transactional show".
My prewar display inventory is limited compared to many folks here ( newer to this area of the hobby) but enjoyed tremendously nevertheless. plus, I have a 3-4 postwar vintage interesting items that are seldom seen in the wild that might be brought along. additionally, I can always quickly put those items out of sight if the overall room's theme is disrupted.
If anyone sets up displays cases like this is the Nat or The Philly Show, they should quickly feel out of place.
