Just a note... if anyone else wishes to bring a game or some parts to sell, you are most welcome to do so! Come on over. I already have people from the Basset Hound Rescue of Quebec coming over. It should be fun!
Oh man... I have to unload now.... I have over 100 backglasses in my van, as well as a Japanese vid caberet cab (REALLY nice...) and 2 Pacman pins.
I will unload slowly tonight. But I can say that most are rough and wall-worthy. I did find a few jems in the pack, like two NEW NOS MINT Evel Knievels, one Lost World NOS near-mint, Star Trek very nice, 6MDM near-mint and Playboy very nice. I have 1 more load to get and I think most of the nice ones are in there. They are wrapped in original packing paper so that's a good sign!
So wall-worthy backglasses will be anywhere between 10 and 50$ depending on how bad. I will label them.
The Pacman pins will be a package deal, unless some want them separately. One is missing the backglass. Cabs are sun-faded but overall not bad. Playfields are very nice. I also have spare parts for these.
Other boxes of goodies, lots of wire ramps, plastics from a DE Star wars including an R2D2 head and a Death Star, and lots more.
Because I wasn't staying there all weekend. That, and also because I have sold at a show before years ago and ended up hauling back 75% of my stuff. At least now, I only move the stuff in my own house.

I hauled back 50% of my stuff and lost about 15%+ on much of what I originally paid (save that I did "ok" on the Jeremy Wilson stuff. Could have done better but I was too lazy to eBay it.). Show stuff only sells in a depressed economy at depressed economy prices. But I needed the cash. And my booth was likely the most popular of at the show except Cointaker's, so I feel for the other vendors.

Ebay is my intention for whatever doesn't sell this weekend. I have held on to some of these things for almost 10 years...

just wait till you do shows where the booth costs $1400 and the result is the same: lucky to recoup gas money! the mood amongst 55 odd vendors at the loadout dock was priceless. it doesn't hurt now, 4 years later.
or even better, imagine loading up a semi, driving 5 days to Vancouver with staff and grossing 93% less than the year before.
such is life of entrepreneur.
i just mention this, just to point out why vendors are cranky when the cheap bastards try to haggle or low ball Wait till your turn comes being on the other side of the table.
