Yep all the time, it's an awesome show, this month their calling it a mega show, most of the past oaks shows have been 1000-1200 tables .. I think this months show it atleast 2000+ tables. There's always a good mix of items and the place is nice and big so you don't feel squeezed, think we walked the last show 2.5-3 hrs.... Fun day

It's the biggest show in the area. Usually a line to get in. 2000 + tables is the entire complex I believe.

Pretty cool show. 2 huge rooms. I always find something. If you use GPS be sure to go on the expo center website. The address is different from their actual address. Same place but for GPS sees it as a different city and street. I think it comes out as Phoenixville or something

I recently went to the 500 table show in york and felt lost. 2000 tables, I might make it an overnighter with the missus or drop her off at king of prussia.

Is haggling on items frowned upon?

Haggling is between you and the dealer. I'm sure they would take asking price on everything though.

I always find it's easier to do so if you have cash.. A lot of times if you plan on using a credit card, they won't hook up a deal as much, if at all.

This show gets so busy that its tough to haggle with some on opening day. This one is a three day show.

It's all about how much effort they have to put forth to make the sale happen. I noticed in Georgia my cash and ccp goes farther than my best friend's credit card. I see some guys fighting to hear the background check people over the cell phone over a crowd, then hope their cheap old credit card reader links up to the internet to move the numbers... with my ccp and cash I just fill out the paperwork and walk out with the gun.
