I went to one ham fest in my town. My town is very small so it was not well attended. They had more tables than vendors which leads me to believe that they expected more. It was my first time attending this one. I did go to the Iola car show this summer. It's one of the big ones. Attendance was down again this year. As was sales. The car coral with cars for sale had at least 50% more cars this year. Which leads me to think that people are starting to hurt. They had high prices on them though. I am sure that many dropped prices after the show. I know of a 60 olds 4 door from out west that was really nice that was going for around 7,000. They put it in the auction and had no takers. After some guy offered 2000 and drove off with a hell of a deal. If I would have know they would have let it go so cheap I would have bought it. It had that cool vista view rear window.
I have noticed a very high number of boats and recreation vehicles for sale lately. Bad time for selling.
