Sun Times summer show

[dbhoops5002]

Has anyone ever set up at the summer Sun Times show in Chicago. I have been wanting to do the March show and it does not work with my schedule. Just wondering how the crowds are and what it is like in comparison to the National. Thanks

Love the March Sun Times Show usually great deals to be had!!!!

Its a decent show, but imo to much Prospects/Graded stuff. But then again, I seem to be in the minority on whats "hot" in the hobby.

Ive never actually been to any card shows. Where would this be held?

Donald Stephenson Event Center in Rosemont.

They call this show the Fans Edge Sports Spectacular. It is put on every year the National is not in Chicago and is another Mounted Memories show. Checking the MM website does not show it on their calendar this year so I'm wondering if it is still on. This show actually has a autograph lineup almost as good as the National but the dealers on the floor are not near as plentiful and the quality of the tables is less. The National would take you 3 days to cover everything properly while a half day should do it here. All that being said it is a great show and you can usually find athletes signing for less here then other places. P.S. last time they had the show if I remember correctly it was the week before the National and that's why some big dealers passed up on it.

Yes it is still going on in March and then another one in June. There is a web site for it but I'll have to find the link again. All I did was google it. They do have a good auto line for the one in March as well.

Anybody going to this for sure?

I just booked my place for the June 27-29 show. What can I expect as a dealer in terms of foot traffic and buyers? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
