This will make my third year selling at VCFMW. My motives are to pay for
the trip :), Diminish the "collection", and have fun talking/meeting
with other attendees. All three have been easily accomplished!
For me, I don't relish the use of a consignment area and spend most of
my time in the selling area. I try not to buy much as I am really trying
to downsize the collection. I do find it better to try and have buyers
waiting for anything large or heavy.
I'm not sure, but I suspect enough people might be interested that it
could be a 24 hour event, Fri night - Sun afternoon :).
See you there!

I'm thinking of reducing my collection by bringing items to VCF Midwest.
I attended once six or seven years ago.
Of course a great deal depends on what I'm selling, so I'll build a list.
Possibles include Micro PDP-11, Microvax II, Vaxstations, Kaypro 1,
CBM, Amiga, Atari, Apple, some S-100 boards.
Is there anyone here who sold at a previous VCF Midwest? How did it go?
If there's only 150 attendees, is selling more like exhibiting?
Ideally I'd like to come home with an empty van.
