all good points.
I have a couple items I am planning to bring - if they sell, they sell, if not, I am not sweating it....or the MegoSuite will be one helluva happening place this year haha.

I don't want to cause the boards any grief by not getting the license - I don't know what it entails, what it costs, what it means on my taxes, but dang - if I have to get a CPA to figure out taxes on five Pennywise action figure one-of-a-kind customs...well, I am going to charge/write-off hollywood-rate production costs for the design, the seamstress work, the manufacture and declare a financial loss.....all for a figure that is a bootleg at the end of the day. Even at $175 per figure I am going to break even ($100 per in just the suit alone and that's no lie. Wait till I unveil it!). We don't do it for the money, we do it to have a keepsake from one of our brothers or sisters. Mego Meet is not like other toy shows....

it is not too complicated to get. it costs $25. It does not need renewed annually. I actually have a vendor's license for my business. i could present it if asked. if someone intends to claim sales they should collect 7.5% on sales and remit to ohio dept tax.

If I read them correctly those of us coming from outside of Ohio would fall under the UT 1000 application which is free... Someone correct me if I’m wrong

transient vendor is still $25. The vendor license is the small cost and minor headache. the bigger issue is collecting and remitting sales tax.

Type3Toys is booked.

So any reporting of sales is Done via the honor system??? Is it safe to assume that?

On a different note (if anyone cares, lol). I've made the final decision to fly in this year. I'd love to to display some of my collection and I know some people would like to see it. But after last year's calamity driving, playing it safe this year wins out. Also with the show growing larger (it's not just us anymore) I'm not going to feel comfortable leaving a table with thousands of $ of WGSH unattended. Also don't want to field unsolicated offers. Hopefully no one takes offense to that. But I know how difficult it is for a collector to see something you want right in front on you and not at least make an offer. No best way to deal with that is avoid it all together.
