Well... I'll be there. Does that count? :P

Have you ever been to an Oaks show?

Actually yes.. i went to the one toward the end of last year. So i guess i'm not new

Prices seem to be getting better. To answer your question I would guesstimate 20%.

I was referring more to the quality of items, rather than the pricing and new show attendees...lol I will give you each a medal.

That is why I guess 20%. You get no medal, or cookie.

I actuallylly don't mind too many of the tables of so called "filler" items as long as they are not in such abundance that I have to walk past a bunch of them before I get to see any guns.

As a vendor who probably falls under filler, I agree with this, but will also point out that the organizers do an awful job placing the filler and the guns out optimally. You'll have three different vendors in a row all selling the same ARs for about $5 difference in price that gets crowded as all hell and then an entire aisle of filler that becomes a dead zone. These shows would be a lot better for everyone (vendors and attendees alike) if they handled placements with a little more care.

That said, some of the filler keeps getting crazier and crazier. Like the last show that had someone selling the modded android boxes ("fireboxes" etc) that let you pirate movies and tv shows direct to your tv. Just seems unsavory imo.

Just found out that I will not be able to make it. My ride flaked and made other plans without realizing the show was this week.

I plan on attending with my girlfriend. She is looking for a carry weapon.

[Auriemma]

I'll be there looking for well priced range ammo (9mm & 22LR) and possibly getting some sights installed.
Do they install sights at the show?

She can shop for dress's at the same time.
Call ahead to make sure they have her size. I might go and pick up
a helicopter, and do some food shopping.
