Anyone going to Columbus at the end of the month?
« on: November 11, 2021, 10:13:21 PM »
I've always wanted to go but have never made it and I'm wondering if it is still worth a 15 hr drive for me to get there.

I used to go all the time, as I live only about 1.5 hours aways. The last time I went was about 3 years ago, and the number of vendors and sellers had dwindled dramatically. It used to be a madhouse with the 3+ buildings literally full of sellers and people and overflow vendors and sellers outside, but a lot has changed. The internet probably killed a lot of it. The sale was always fairly Mustang oriented (imagine that), but it seemed more so with the smaller turnout. Of course it is hard to say how the crowd will be one event to the next (unless you can access a vendor list online), but everyone I have spoken with, from vendors to attendees, have related similar thoughts.

Not sure if you made the trek, but it was pretty slim.  Busy as such, but with only 2 buildings there was not much to look at.  I did my routine BS'n as I run into a ton of people I know and the MAIN reason I go.

In the last 30 years, I've only missed a couple shows.

I ended up not going. Thanks for the update.
