WOW. next to our booth at Hershy for years was Dale from Idaho.

He had a four-wheel trailer full of auto stuff and his cot. he worked the show circuit for 4 months. Hershey was the last in the circuit.
He owned a junkyard back home. What hurt him was the cost of logistics: Fuel repairs, parking, spirit. loneliness when things were, good he made a decent cut. Then can Ebay.

The cost of coming to the big show to buy, increases the cost you pay for the rare piece you need. When I was heavy working in Standard gauge trains, I loved the ebayer who dumped a box full on trains for safe. Clean straighten and fix the pile and tribble my $$,, I had Ted Maurer's auction frequently an always had debris for him to auction. I always grabbed the bottom of his auctions.
Like many of us, we had customers for certain pieces. I was employed for some of these many years and used my knowledge to assist Greenberg in his train writings.
