This past weekend I poked my head in on the show in St. Francis a suburb of Milwaukee on Sunday to be precise and of course my wallet was on a strict diet and I was under the old battle axes supervision. We spent our wad at the Brewers game the night before and they pulled out a comeback in extra innings. Go figure.

If I had the green light and the funds I certainly would've spent some serious coin. But the sad part of it is the vendors that were in attendance were selling at 5% to 30% of current retail value. In-fact there was one dealer there that was using a 2016 set of Scott catalogs to list his prices by. Some others where using even older catalogs. It was almost like a swap meet mentality and they were all eager to barter.

How would one compete with them? I know I couldn't.
