I would easily be able to get to one in Kansas. If there were one in KC then that would be great.

I also have a gola of getting to the SDCC this year or next :wink:

3 HRS. I might be able to make it if it's any good.

Does anyone have experience with the KC Con?

This looks like it is run by the same guy that does some Council Bluffs/Omaha shows. They are usually pretty small and have been lame sometimes but it may be better in Kansas. :hope:
I do chicken right!

it is the same guy.

i know a dealer from iowa who did a KC show last month, he's always had good success there (this last time did about $1500).

i do think it was run by someone else though. i can check into things if you guys want

It's Allan's contact number (the gent who runs a lot of these small Midwest shows), so he's at least partly running this one, too.

These shows are small, but enjoyable. I like that kind of show myself, but there's obviously not going to be the selection you're used to at a big show. If nothing else, Allan usually has a few gems in his .50 boxes!
