Shows have become a true waste of my time with all the new get rich quick kids setting up tables. If I feel like window shopping I’ll go to a museum.
I honestly expect a discount at shows and I don’t feel that unreasonable. You do have a table fee, but you are skipping on eBay or auction fees, PayPal fees and shipping costs. I damn well know that an overwhelming number of sellers are not reporting those cash sales and skipping out on the 1099 that eBay will provide. Also, the buyer not paying sales tax or an auction premium brings the offers up.
I guess it’s still fun to occasionally poke around in boxes, especially if you have a kid with you. I rarely find anything rare enough to consider as it’s more commonly modern leftovers from YouTube box breaking. So other than the passing fun of the initial walk around, I have a hard time justifying the drive.
