Card show in cincy

chris43 · 10-13-2015, 07:12 PM

I'm considering going to the Moeller High School in Cincinnati at the end of November. I used to love going to shows to buy and even trade at times. Over the past few years I always find myself wondering why I even wasted the fuel/time to attend instead of staying home and buying on Ebay. Is this show worth fighting the holiday travelers and Black Friday crowds for a 3.5 hour drive? I would probably end up going on Saturday. Opinions and reviews of the show are greatly appreciated.

The show is usually pretty good. It's about 30 mins from me so the drive isnt bad plus there's usually an autograph guest i get. A lot of vintage and a decent amount of modern. Theres also a table that has a good amount of wax. Deals can be had but you might have to hunt. A few dealers wont budge for the most part thou. Its not the biggest of shows but I always enjoy it.

I go to both the April and November show at Moeller. Nowadays it's mainly to support my Alma Mater. Shows today seem overpriced compared to eBay. Personally, I wouldn't drive 3.5 hours for any show. For the greater Cincinnati area, it's certainly the best. They usually have 150 tables. If nothing else, you can always walk the grounds Barry Larkin and Ken Griffey Jr once did while at Moeller.

I'll have to check it out myself if you guys are recommending it.

I'm local so I enjoy it for sure. I don't know if I would drive that far for it though
