Who's going to Chantilly?

I managed to bump into a few Net54ers at the show. (I think my bright orange Net54 t-shirt helped). It was a great show. I flew in last night and with jetlag still working in my favor, I was waiting in the expo lobby at 8am. It was getting crowded in there until they opened the doors at 9am
Not 858am....not 859am...it was exactly 9am.

I made my way to the PSA stand first to get 3 autos certified. But they weren't doing encapsulations on site so I had to settle for a take away submission. Hopefully my nerves will hold out until my Jimmie Foxx auto shows up in the PSA tracking.

There was a good mix of vintage (pre and post war), memorabilia and shiny modern. I saw a food smattering of goudeys, t205s, T3s, t206s. I mostly picked up post war vintage as well as a bunch of 1934 diamond matchbooks and some 1940 playball.as well.as this Ted Williams pennant.

Most of all it was great getting to chat with collector's and dealers.

I was there on Friday from 3-7. I wouldn't say it was crazy busy for a Friday, but there was a steady stream of traffic that picked up once people got out of work.

Around 3:30 or so I stood in the middle and took a photo in all four directions. EDIT: not sure why the 4th photo is not showing up. Maybe a limit of some sort on Net54???

I went Friday. It was fun and there was a good selection, but I am struggling to get my head around the new pricing. Everything seemed insanely priced...but it could be me. I think I spent about $50.

I’m right there with you, Todd. You spent $50 more than I did. I might need to win Powerball before handling recent pricing.
