    Hey everyone,

    A buddy (The G) and I have been setting up for the past few months at some local card shows to see if we could move some of our extra stuff. We have not even made table money ($25.00). We have a nice varity of older and newer stuff but it just seems that no one goes to card shows anymore. Years ago we would do local shows and bring in a couple of hundred dollars each month. I know the economy is worse than it was 10-15 years ago but when you only get 25 people coming to a show it is crazy.

    Have any of you guys ever setup at local card shows?

    I haven't done it in years. Have been thinking about trying to do a couple that are close. Hopefully after tomorrow night's power ball drawiing i can just set up a the house and have my own card show or at least my own case busting party that i plan on for a few days.

    I have not ever set up at a card show, but I used to go to the flea market in florida and sell some cards among other things there , always did better on packs than single cards.
