Had a friend who went last year. More like a giant arcade than a swap meet show display.
He wasn't looking for machines, so didn't notice if any were for sale, or if vendors were present

Hey Jim (kilroy) , From what I saw on the site that's what I more or less expected, I was going to  check out and play the pins to see  what else I would like to buy LOL..... but I'm  hoping they are mixing it up a bit this year here's what they got on their web site.

We will also have many Vendors along 3 walls of the Michigan Pinball Expo. Full size arcade pinball machines will be for sale from local businesses such as Jeff from Big Toys who will be offering great deals on an assortment of wonderful coin-op additions to your home game room. We will also be announcing new additions to the show daily, so please check back often! With over 10,000 sq. ft. of pinball goodness going on, there is something for everyone at the Michigan Pinball Expo.

Hey Pat I'll take some pics and post them.

Jim thanks for posting it on the calendar!
