Receive an email today showing the Bloomington Gold Show Brochure and it's 40+ page content. Wow the 50th Anniversary of Bloomington Gold https://e.issuu.com/embed.html?back...&d=2023_show_program_final_pages&u=goldreview

On page 27 they list the vendors attending the show. It is more remarkable to list those not attending.

AAA, ACI, America's Finest, Allens (RIP), Bairs, Caledonia, Classic Productions, CMD =Trim Parts, Country Corvette, Cranes, CRC, CSC, Corvette Steering (RIP), Corvette Specialties of china, Chicago Vette Supply, Dewitt, EC, Ecklers, ESL, Image, J&B, K&B (RIP), Keen, Lectric Ltd, Legendary, LICS, MC Productions, Melrose, MidAmerica, Muskegon, New Vet, Pacific, Paragon, Pats Locks, Podell, Rogers, Romeo, RP, Sermersheim (RIP), Specialty Parts, Street, Sully, Toledo, Vette Prod of MI, Volunteer and zyp the gyp.

We last attended in 2005 – just 18 years ago. Put a fork in it – it is dying. C4, C5, C6, C7 and C8 will never bring the crazed enthusiasm of the early plastic ones – IMHO.

Lotta truth in your post.

I used to really look forward to the swap meet and vendors there. Been about 20+ years since I last went.

I sold at Bloomington Gold/St Charles the first three years they were there, did great in one space the first year, did not so great the second year in two spaces, did even less the third year in three spaces, for me the writing was on the wall...no more vending at St Charles and thanks to the nazi moderator at C/F I list all my stuff on ebay.....
