    Should I get a table?

    I'm wondering if I should get a table for this year. I haven't done it before. Since I don't have a Micronauts exhibit to haul out and set up this year, I was thinking of doing a sales table instead.

    I have a lot of non-Mego toy-related odds and ends I would like to move, like model kits, Star Wars stuff, some Japanese & Transformer things. ALIEN toys. All kinds of odds and ends.

    Has anyone had any problems with their stuff when they're not in attendance of their table? I don't want to be shackled to it. But I figured I'd put a sign or whatnot on the table with my name on it, so that when I'm away and someone wants something from it they can find me.

    Anyone care to tender advice? Thanks!

    For the cost, if you have stuff to move it's a no brainer. I rarely bring any Mego stuff myself. It's usually just things I have obtained over the year that I have no interest in but have come in lots. I've never not made back what the table cost plus some. The first year the table proceeds netted me my CSS Spidey. I did have some decent things that year though.

          $32, includes membership. So it's like $12 bucks.

            Berto paid off his table last year before I got in the car to drive there.

                I can't complain at all about the tables

                IMHO it's worth it.

                  exactly my thought.
                  I have stuff accumulated and get rid of.

                        5' x 25'......JK they're standard 6' banquet tables.

                          I have brought a cheap dollar store table cloth to cover up things when I had a lot of small parts, and would cover up my table for lectures and breaks, but I didn't even bother last year (but I didn't have as much to protect).

                              Sweet. You might even tempt me with my first Mirconaut.
