You might be looking at the wrong both. There were at least 5 vendors stopped by our store to see me yesterday. There were probably at least half a million dollar worth of inventories they brought to show me.

I must admit, as still newbies to the hobby, it was a little overwhelming at first, but we ended up with some great deals, and more importantly great information to take joke to our tank. We could have easily been interested longer, but we had another commitment that forced us to leave around 4. All of the vendors were not only knowledgable but friendly and homestead with us. No one tried to oversell us on something that was too expensive or too difficult for beginners. Most would even suggest an area of their stock to stick to as good for beginners it was feet to meet other members too and some other hobbyists. There is such a wealth of knowledge and it is great to tap I'm to learning from others
As for the light turn out, I do have to say it was a tough weekend, we sandwiched it between commitments but I am sure some could not. I wonder if fall would be easier to find a better weekend. Anyone with school aged kids is swamped right now until school ends. This was a busy weekend with all the things people try to fit in before Memorial Day. The spring is always tough with spring break and festivals and the end of school. With an event like this you get stuck with the best of bad options frequently.
Another thing, we noticed that we had at least 3 names for this event so maybe unifying it would help. We saw it called swap on the forums and expo several places but another flyer called it the coral farmers market. I'm not sure if it had any impact but getting the naming consistent couldn't hurt. Also the imagery the same would help people recognize signage at the event. We were familiar with Gwinnett center and had no problem, but with the event at the arena yesterday too I could see how people were confused.
Overall, we enjoyed it and cannot wait for the eject event.
