I met quite a few crusty/cranky dealers who I know wouldn't be willing to do that ("if I had it, it would be out already! Truly heard).

But I also met quite a few very nice dealers who might be willing to put in a little extra effort (not much needed, really) to bring targeted customers to them.

Not sure it will work, but I drafted a simple check box that is an example of what I have in mind... imagine this in an NSCCC app (assuming the wifi worked!).

Again, millions and millions of $$ probably exchanged hands last week... a more modern experience would raise our hobby game from a huge flea-market model to something better for both seller and buyer.

Example:
Very Modern (2000 to current)
Modern (1981 to 1999)
Vintage (1952 to 1980)
Very Vintage (1900-1951)
Pre-1900

Memorabilia (tickets, yearbook, tickets)
Game-worn equipment, uniforms, hate
Autographs

Other (free text)

Special notes to customers (free text… $1 boxes, extremely rare items to call out, etc.)

Dealer Name
Dealer booth #
I really like this idea. That way, you know who to go to and who to skip.
