My thing was, they sold all the needles in NJ. Why not save some for each show?

They did have needles on Friday. Not sure what time they sold out. Plug building isn't John Jr.'s main focus, so he can't crank them out in volume.

The Chieftain was good but this really made O.D. M's day, maybe the whole year unless he hooks up on a tuna on spinning gear.  |

Went to the show today.
Show is down compared to past years. A handful of vendors I planned to see were not there (CMS, Daiwa,Dexter knife company to name a few)
Saw and spoke with with plenty, seemed everyone I talked to worried about this economy and not spending $

Great time at the show this weekend. Working at a booth is not as easy as it seems, lots of respect that do it for a living! Good to see some familiar faces, and meet some new ones. And I finally got a sticker
Can't say I blame Jr, at all. Last year he had tons of inventory hanging on the walls on Sunday afternoon. It's a business... He should sell everything he can at every show he goes to. If he sets aside a quarter of his needles to sell at RISAA and they don't all sell, he's shooting himself in the foot. And he did make the Stixx specifically for RISAA (which are pretty sweet might I add).
He said that he'd have larger needles ready in a couple of weeks... They should be available soon. |

I don't blame him for anything, I was just saying I was disappointed. him and his friends and fam that work the booth there are really nice people. How can anybody get mad at them?
But seriously, do you think his needles wouldn't sell at RISSA? I'm just saying, if it were me, I would have evened it out for each show.
