Some of the best times to sell are when its cold and raining... Less sellers. More captive audience.. Supply and demand.. So close you should go... Dress warm.

There was 18 rows of sellers. Way down from the approximately 50 rows last year. Pulling in I suddenly had the sinking feeling I came the wrong weekend. I breezed right up to the gate at 8 AM. But boy were there deals to be had! My friends kid got a free bicycle. I got more tools than I could carry for $20. Mini action was scarce but I saw a survivor Rupp frame go for $50. Turbine wheels alone would fetch more. My boys got loads of Hotwheels for $5. It was a decent road trip.
