Sounds great. Really wish we could be there especially since Dec. 15th is Steve's bday.

As I recall from last year's post-sale reports, some of the pickings were pretty slim. Especially poster-wise.

[ibjamn]

I prolly won't go back to this sale. I got a t-shirt & a bag last year, but I wasn't really happy with the selection of stuff. It is very much "left-overs", not for someone looking for a rare poster or hard to find size. There were so many people in such a small space, it was hard to look around.

Oh ok, thanks for the 411, Jenn. I couldn't remember what the deal with it was. Great to have locals to get the info from directly. :D

I too appreciate the above feedback, but I'll probably go check it out anyhoo, just because I'm a curious kitten like that and like to do what I can to support the Foundation and OZ . . . you never know, it might be better than last year (it could happen). :D

"Shop early for best selection" - tho as Jenn says, the pickin's were gettin' pretty slim by 11:00 a.m. last year, and the checkout line was crazy long.

[funkkjunkie]

But there might be a couple good things for raffle prizes and they might've dug deeper into that vault. :)

[Zydekitten]

Okay, Kitten's plan is to get there at 9:00 sharp then . . . ;) :D

If anyone finds and picks up any raffle prizes like Amyloves & Jenn were able to do last year, it will be most appreciated :) :)

[twangster]

Can anyone provide info on the CDs last year? Were they specific artists or compilations? General cost? Thanks...

Anyone think there would be some 'OZ compilations in the stacks??

I think he meant at the Bazaar next Saturday.

It seems like last year they had lots of CD's from specific artists that looked like they had been used - played on the air at 'OZ is my guess. I don't recall seeing any 'OZ compilations, but there were too many there to peruse thoroughly, and the crowd was insane.

Amy, I'll keep an eye out for potential raffle prizes.

[Amy Winette]

Thanks Frank!! :) :)

[Amyloves...]

It was really a zoo last year....there were stacks of cd's everywhere and you could hardly move. I'm thinking they'll probably change the layout this year or something.
