hey all.. it has been about 5 years since i have been to any shows. I went to the flint show last week which i knew would be semi waste. Is the flint show decent recently or should i just wait for Birch Run? thanks! |

How are you guys rating these shows? I frequent the Lansing, Birch Run, and Mt. Clemens shows. I'd rate Birch Run the best simply because of a large # of tables, plus the building is nicer and the show is located near lots of restaurants. The Lansing show has not quite as many tables, but it's located in the middle of nowhere. Mt. Clemens isn't much but the good folks from Tactical Solution and Centennial (anotherlefty) are usually there. Haven't seen one show or another loaded with "great deals." Those seem random. |
Dont forget the "rare" coins |
I spent the day perch fishing in beautiful weather. I think I made the right decision.

Four or five dealers had them, with the normal prices. They ran anywhere form $110-$135, depending on what mfg. you want. I try and buy them from Eric. He seems to have the best selection and best pricing. If you go to the show today, he is on the left side, 2/3 of the way back, right on the main aisle, one row in front of Tony's. Good luck! John |
So true, I have never seen it this busy, there was still a line at 11:30 to get in. I do think there were tons of FTF sales, part of that being due to the economy and part being due to the upcoming election. It was a general madhouse but there was some VERY nice stuff there if you looked. Some was overpriced as usual but some of it was pretty fairly marked. Save for one or two dealers, the surp ammo market and dealers are dead and gone. |
