Had the attitude that everyone wsa out to get them. Tagger and I were standing infront of the table getting ready to pick up a plug and he screams "hold it" No plugs could be picked up and looked at until the person buying (tagger) picked out his 3. He must think I look like a criminal or something.....
Dave, how long did it take to sell the Lefty's out? that's $5,000.00 plus/minus if he sold out.

Trade bait! I like that! Good thinking.

Why even try.........

He was wrapped up in well under an hour. I should have bought the 3rd one. People want to buy them but I am not looking for money from them. It's "what do you have to trade" small ones were 30 and large were 35

When I walked in it was a bee line to see Mike F. and Gary. Then I moved around. I did see the shadowbox. Very nice and the pieces in it all looked mint. I would have bought a few tickets for the drawing but was too lazy to fill out the coupons.

I was considering going to that one, but I passed on it and instead went to the Berkley one as in New Jersey anyway. I not much of a pug collecter but the Berkley mostly had tackle and a few plug builders. I was very impressed with Berkley one. The crowds were not bad and actual had good gear. I would recommend definetly going to a Jersey Flea market. We guys need to get one started here.
