I am going to stay out of this topic, but thanks to Steve for delivering my pumps. It was more convenient than dad having to drive another 2 hours to pick them up.

Thanks, Phil

Phil likes shows!!!!

Last reply on this subject and you can be your own judge on it. Our flyer states "NO UNAUTHORIZED VENDING", and $25.00 per person early bird admission. When you advertise in advance on this site (Jan 13, 2006 12:53 AM) that you, "will be outside selling some stuff", it appears that it is a little more planned than just something that happened. When we go with our wives to the craft show, chick flick, doll show, we pay the admission fee and don't expect otherwise. We have never been to an event with our wives where they quizzed us at the door to see who was interested and how many admissions should be charged. If you rented a space it includes admission for two people. The cost per space is $55.00 if paid before Dec.1 which in reality makes your space cost $5.00!! We DO NOT have a problem with someone delivering presold item(s) to their customer even if they are not a vendor. We do this event to make a profit. We make no bones about it. It is part of what we do to make a living. We enjoy it but we are NOT avid gas hobbiest so we are not competing against our participants for that killer piece. We hate rules and try to keep them at a minimum but what is fair, is fair. Many people have continued to support our event through the years and we really appreciate them and all that they do.

Thanks for your thoughts everyone. Since this is oldgas.com and not bickering.com I am locking this topic.
