Kimberton(Morgantown, PA ) antique show

It was a hard decision, but we have decided to drop the Morgantown/Oaks shows.   Always looked forward to the Kimberton show at the firehouse.  But that's over, and the new locations at the expo centers just aren't the same.

It's not over for us, just need to find some new shows.  Hope to see you next year.

Kimberton(Oaks) antique show Saturday 3/18/32 report.

 Sales for us was ok.   Must of them went to other dealers, which is good.  That means there selling and need more merchandise. But to the retail customer, no so good.  Most of the dealers I talked to had a good show, some very good.  Saw many of our old customers.  All said they like the old location.  Not much you can do about that.  

However this location is not available for the next show in November.  So they have to find some place else if they do a November show.

Kimberton(Oaks) March 2023 pre-show photes

 I have my fingers crossed.  The show is in an exhibit hall. It's lacking that home feeling  Already missing the firehouse in Kimberton.  Hoping our old customers come and also make a few new ones. Took a few photos of our both and some inside during setup.







Setup.

Kimberton Antique show is moving to a new Location March 2023

 
We're moving to the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center.   Lori(our show promoter) notified us  last week that  the fire hall informed her that they were no longer going to rent out space to the public starting 2024 and doubling the rent for 2023.  So it was a good time to move.

Kimberton antique show Sunday report November 2022

 We did have a couple of sales on Sunday.  The promoter reported over 1100 people attended the show.  Talked to a few more dealers who said they had a very good show.  You never know, some have great shows, others don't.

Kimberton antique show Saturday 11/19/22 report.

 Of the couple of dealers I spoke with said it was a OK show.  Not great, just ok. This was our third show here after covid.  I think I would agree with, OK.  Last spring was more sales.  But with high inflation and the possibility of a recession, I guess ok is the new standard.  I know tomorrow will be slow.  See what happens.

Kimberton antique show Saturday report

 The crowd was about the same number as last show.  Not as good as last year sales, but still good.  Couple of the larger items sold,  table, quilt that was hanging on the wall and the box of many draws.  Would like to see a couple of more sales on Sunday.
