Title: Chicagoland show one month away Post by: Larry on October 14, 2014, 08:28:11 am It's officially one month away. Anyone going? lol
Just curious, what is the most interesting item you will be bringing to the show to sell? Title: Re: Chicagoland show one month away Post by: SIGNGUY on October 14, 2014, 08:58:28 am I hate to say it but I will not be attending this fall, have other travel plans that are right on top of this show :down:
but I do know my buddies that travel with me are going and he is bringing nearly a whole collection of stuff he just got down there to sell.. so make sure to look for his booth , most likely near the back! Have fun! Title: Re: Chicagoland show one month away Post by: MoonDawg on October 14, 2014, 10:02:27 am I can't make it but hopefully can help someone who does.
Slider Bob had 3 sliders picked up last week from here by a great U-ship driver out of Michigan, Rich Garvin. Him and his wife left here in California for Washington, now heading to Texas, Florida and back to Michigan. They make cross country runs constantly. I just talked to Rich and they can be in Chicagoland next month if anyone wants anything transported in or out. His number is 248 798-1756 Title: Re: Chicagoland show one month away Post by: Slider-Bob on October 14, 2014, 11:58:13 am I'll be there, and can't wait!
Going to deliver a pre-sold 81b, and coming home with a pre-bought slider from Lloyd at coin-op warehouse. Title: Re: Chicagoland show one month away Post by: Eric on October 14, 2014, 01:34:37 pm As of now the wife and I will be there... we still meeting at the restaurant (name?) Thursday night?

Title: Re: Chicagoland show one month away Post by: HowDueYouDue on October 14, 2014, 10:51:06 pm Still debating. Long drive, first timer, and I know how I get when I go to a local flea market and they have one real coin op. Based on the videos on YouTube, I envision my head and wallet exploding. :)

Congrats on your son becoming a Marine, I know you have to be one proud dad! Title: Re: Chicagoland show one month away Post by: Jim on October 20, 2014, 11:52:44 am Too many things on my plate until the end of the year will keep me from attending...
I was on the fence the last couple of weeks and decided it would be too much for me... There will be other shows for me... Title: Re: Chicagoland show one month away Post by: jholmgren on October 26, 2014, 08:09:47 pm New gig has me so busy I haven't been able to keep up with happenings on this board. I was planning to attend, but it looks like I'll be headed to London that weekend for work - so probably can't work it all in.
The London trip is still tentative, so ... maybe. Jim Title: Re: Chicagoland show one month away Post by: dr galaga on November 09, 2014, 10:48:06 pm What time is the dinner "starting" on Thursday?
Title: Re: Chicagoland show one month away Post by: Eric on November 10, 2014, 07:36:01 am Wife and I usually get there by 7pm and there are folks already there... just a few more days... can't wait.
