If you went as a buyer or seller, how did you do?I got there about 10:30a and it was already pretty busy making me wish I hadn't slept in. Relying on my very bad memory, I'd guess there were about 11 sellers, 4 set up outside and 6-8 inside. There were two sellers which looked fairly professional with albums individually priced. The rest had boxes with mostly low-priced items. One seller did have CD's but all the action seemed to centered around LP's and 45's.
I spent $65 and took home 29 albums (30 LPs) so I was mostly bargain hunting. I went to the Raleigh show last April and spent $230 so from my perspective there weren't was many rarities worth paying higher prices for. Overall I'm pretty happy with what I came away with although I am still obsessing over the ones that got away!

Follow Ups:
I don't think they got the word out to enough buyers. Pretty slow most of the day, especially the afternoon. I sure didn't sell as many records as I hoped I would.
The guy behind me actually sold a frikin' Whipped Cream and Other Delights for $5.00! I had a Big Brother Cheap Thrills, trashed for a buck, or a VG+ for six or seven. Guess which one sold.Thanks to bboroski for stopping by.
Pretty Damn good!! I was there around 11AM. Didya meet
DAT outside?? I bought a couple of Styx albums from him.
He was very nice fella with some great vinyl. I see

I picked up some really great stuff from him as well.
I picked up the following:
Styx-Grand Illusion
Styx-Pieces of Eight
Led Zeppelin-Houses of the Holy
Charlie Daniels-Fire on the Mountain
