One could ask:
What do I get for my money?
or...
What am I giving by my money?
Isn't everything like that? When I was much younger I needed to be more concerned about "value" vs "so what I want it"
TCA = York for my wife and I. We've had a routine that fits us. It does appear to be an older folks event. Also I buy less every meet. I do like seeing the actual products and who makes it.
Occasionally I've done a transaction with a member meet up at York. I think if someone wants to downsize their collection, taking a table at York would be a great way to do so. I hate to list online and ship and worry about money. What could be better than selling directly for cash? Set a price to sell and clean out the closets.
