Prepare yourself to be blown away from the sheer size of York. Comfortable walking shoes, cash, cash, and more cash. Buy it when you see if the price is right as it will be gone on your next go-tnrough or you will not remember where you saw it. Bring pen/paper to write notes if you are looking for something in particular.
Be prepared to make new friends in the hobby. This is the BIG dance! Well worth the $50 TCA membership, quarterly magazine, the buy-sell magazine. Besides York costs you $15 to go, the best $15 spent to go to a huge show
Enjoy York, you newbies! Lol!
No one knows York like Ted! His advice is gold.....
About two years ago I attended York for the first time. I knew Ted from the old AOL boards but had never met in person. When Ted heard it was going to be my first time he arranged to meet me outside the hall where you pick up your badge. He then took me under his wing and gave me a first hand tour along with advice on what to be sure to see and what to watch out for.
Ted invited me to dinner with a group from the old AOL board that I had known for years but never met... it was one of the most enjoyable days I've had in this hobby! And it was all because Ted took the time to show me the ropes... I'm forever thankful Captain!
My first time was awesome and I'm sure yours will be also!
