[QUOTE="Nighthawk, post: 2173849, member: 3906"] Dave makes some very good points. It is very easy to sit behind a computer and belittle everyone that is trying to run a business. Yes, he started out at $5.00, it cost more to put on a good show by spending money to advertise the correct way. Yes, $5.00 to get in and socialize with some friends is not a bad deal, but it just costs more to put on a good show that vendors want to set up at. Bottom line, If the vendors are not making money, they do not set up at your show, and if you do not advertise a lot, the people that have the money to buy weapons and items are not the ones coming in the door. Just tire kickers, and people to socialize. It is easy do downgrade someone using your computer. It is easy to say all this, and not invest your time and money. 'Walk a mile in this man's shoe's' If you do not like gun shows, don't go to them, don't spend your time belittling them. No one really cares if the people that talk bad about others and the shows even go. Those people just want everyone to know on every gun show thread that they do not like gun shows. We have read the same exact statement from these people over and over again. If you do not like a certain vendor, just do not purchase from him. Don't belittle him on the internet. I know by these statements I will have our 'problem people' jump my case too. Do I care, no, because those people are people that I never see in my shop anyway. They just like to complain. [/QUOTE]
