I've enjoyed going to Medina and just strolling around checking things out over the years.  It's one of the larger shows in the area so there are usually plenty of vendors.  

In this day and age you can often find better deals online but I still enjoy just seeing what is out there.  It's also great for saving on shipping those little things that you only need one or two of.

I prefer Berea just because it is spread over multiple bldgs with generally wider aisles.

Similar quality show but less constant cram...

But for neohio shows those are best.

I've always gone to the Berea and Medina shows.
The Berea show is a bit bigger but both are good sized.
Haven't been in a few years, though.
Hour drive to either one for me.

Medina Fun Show?

yeah -- it's ok --me likes it. Prices seem to be through the roof last time I was there, BUT--as noted, for stuff online buying needing Haz-Mat and Shipping $$$, try and grab some there at the Show.

Lots of small stuff like bronze bore brushes, cleaning supplies you can buy cheap there w/o a "min order" price tag on-line.

The Army surplus stuff there is durn reasonable--winter artic gloves, parkas, liner, fart sacks....

As always -- weather and 'waitin' in line to get in' is torment. Line usually forms up at the door, runs along the side of the building, then snakes down the far parking lot. NOAA is predicting 35*F and 25% chance of rain at 0900 for 11 DEC -- BE PREPARED! Standing outside in cold and rain. Have you a parka and/or hooded poncho handy.

Just ask "Hatchet Jack" with his .50 cal Hawken:
