I unfortunately did and was extremely disappointed. Not only were the same old tired dealers there but this time they all jacked their prices up in unison:

Pre ban bushies for $2300
Worn out Garands for $700
Standard R.R. Arms ARs for $800
Used and abused 30 rd. Ar mags $30/$35

And then as I walked around the show I heard some of these old boys say that the crowd was big but noone was spending any money. I can see why! I guess they were all looking for that 'sucker' to come along. I guess he never did though.

My Dad and a couple of other guys went, they were disappointed too.  They said there was'nt too many people bringing anything to trade/sell, and the dealers were way high.  I went to the last one and it was pretty much the same story, now I'm just holding out for the Spring Tulsa show.  Hopefully prices will be a little more sane by then.

I've just about given up on any shows except Tulsa. The local ones have the same old dealers with astronomically high prices.
