WOW !!!!
Thats all I can say about the show. Janet and I enjoyed meeting everyone. We were very pleased with how everyone was so nice to us. We have always set up at the show, but never with a business like this. Janet will be busy for a week filling orders. It's great to put a face with a name. I did get a chance to shop the parking lot at 4:00 am in the morning. I picked up a nice counter top Glascock cooler and a Vendo 23 Deluxe. There wasn't as many machines as usual, but a lot of other neat items. I came real close to buying that Mills 47, but it looked like a real project that would have taken a lot of time and money to get back to original state.
I took several pictures of Janet and I set up at the show. The last picture shows John trying to get a discount on his parts. HA !! HA !!
Again we really enjoyed meeting everyone, and are really looking forward to the next show. biggrin

I am looking forward to placing an order with you shortly. I need a few things for a Standard and a Vendo 39.

I have it bookmarked already - can't wait to see it! I think Steve missed out on a lot of sales by not having one, so I'm glad you two a going to have one up and running.
Good Luck!

Joey I didn't get any pictures of the Mills 47. It was in the guys truck and he never got it out. That thing is SUPER HEAVY.
Leonard I purchased my Glascock for $350.00 and it is in excellent condition. I will try and post a picture for you in the next couple of days. The scale that the guy was showing me, I went ahead and purchased it, and then the next day I sold it and made a few bucks. Janet wasn't real happy when I bought it. It's one of those things that is also SUPER heavy and she didn't think I could sell it. Well I guess I proved her wrong on that one. Just goes to show you that us men can be right once and a while.  biggrin
