Quoted from Daniml:Oh, and I forgot ... please provide suggestions for retaining pins till the end of a show!!!
Have the swap meet and pinball fire sale on Thursday night (early friday morning till 1 hour before opening). Sell a buyers pass if need be for those not bringing a game but want in on setup hours to buy games. If you buy a game and don't intend for it to be at the show on free play you must have it out before open on Friday. Friday open till 8pm and Saturday open till 6 pm are a show. If you have a game in the free play area it has to be on and on free play and no for sale signage will be allowed. If you are bringing a game and it is in the free play area it is to share with others on free play. If you want to sell games to the masses during the show by a vendor booth. If you want to try and appease both crowds then machines must be on and on free play from Open till 8pm Friday, 6pm Saturday. After this time you can post a for sale sign on your game and or start breaking your game down for removal for the day. Have this clearly stated on the site and to anyone wanting to bring a game. And at check in (give everyone a rules flyer at game check in). If you can't/don't want to comply with it then don't bring a game. Save your 8 bucks and come and go each day as you please and make your dealings on your own dime out in the parking lot.
