@ A1, we love collecting as much as you do !
Hi everybody
THE IDEA
Something that has been lacking in Perth now is a regular hobby fair ! The nexus fair is not regular enough or long enough and after speaking to a few other hobby fans and shop owners it might be worth going all out and make it happen.
HOW IT WILL HAPPEN
If this is going to happen, I need to hear from anyone who wants to have a stall on the day ! There is currently a comic store and hobby (RC) store interested and I have 1 NBA box supplier keen also. We need more if this is going to work so please get in contact with me if you are interested
You can either set up as a seller or just a display. Preference will be given to sellers and the cost will be shared equally amongst all sellers.
THE LOCATION
Ultimately cost will have a lot to do with where this event will be held. However, it looks like there are a few nice places that are indoor and available for up to 5 hours that look perfect on paper and price wise. I am hoping to check the venues out before hand for toilets and facilities etc.
Happy for any suggestions on a place near the city center and public transport
HOW OFTEN WILL IT BE ON
As discussed with the already interested parties, they all agree with something happening once a month is the way to go !
YOUR VIEWS AND OPINIONS
Please take a minute to post your ideas and suggestions for this kind of event so it can be as close to perfect as possible for everyone's enjoyment.
THE HOPE
My hope is that the local collectors in WA can get this show so well organized and popular that our fellow collectors and box suppliers from interstate are willing to make the trip over to join in ! Especially with flight being so cheap these days
Still not sure how this will get done but of course we may need to advertise locally but hopefully some positive word of mouth can get the job done ! I would also like to Donate the door if possible(yes there will be an entry fee like a gold coin donation) to a local charity. This idea is about the love of the hobby and a way of getting other collectors together so why not help others at the same time.
An entry fee will only be charged if the event is aligned with a charity or the cost of the hall is not covered by people with stalls set up on the day
A big thanks in advance
Terry
PS, anyone interestedsetting up a stall or willing to volunteer to help set it up on the day etc Please let me know !
