Event Coverage Swap Meet Setup Do's and Don'ts

I have had too many"Pickers show experts" lately. They try to beat me down telling me they need "meat on the bone" I tend to be like you said, give the best price and if they try to bargain down after that I tell them I have decided to keep it. I don't give a shit if they make money on it, I just want to get a decent price out of stuff so I can make a buck.
P.S. A really good way to piss me off are the big shot Aholes that pull the flip you for it, their price or yours. I tell them to go home and watch some more TV to make room for the guys that want to buy parts for their cars.

 

I still like the low ball offers on headlight & tail light lens or other breakable parts. You toss it to a friend for his opinion, he has NEVER caught one in the past 50 years. Bob

 

The Hershey packing has begun and i have this killer head cold.Nice timing.

 

Stop by and have a cold one! C4J 36/37/38 I am told it will help!

 

Holy Shitski, I am 99% packed and feeling much better...Thank you God! I will actually have to leave stuff home as I have too much stuff this year,about twice the amount of last year. Good feeling going into this years event. Hope everyone has a safe trip!!!!!!!!

 

Trailer packing starts tomorrow, it is a one way trip for all the stuff except for one wheel. I try to bring along parts I'm trying to upgrade, if I find and buy a better one I have the old one to then display and help recoup what I spent. Bob

Thanks to everyone that responded to this thread. Some very good eye opening thoughts and comments. All of which has helped me and others out I am sure!!! Jim Federspiel Fedcospeed My avitar thanks you too because monies made go to her for the winter rebuild. It may actually hit the road again next summer. Its only been 28 years

 

Here is a thought, this year when I get home maybe I'll put all the tent poles, tarps, empty crates in ONE PLACE, will make Hershey 2018 loading a lot easier. Hope everyone has a safe trip. Bob
