I agree that this show (and all others for that matter - even the National) are a shell of their former selves. And for dealers, the crazy emphasis on the autograph guests at the Sun Times Show has always been frustrating - really, why would you pay $169 for a Scotty Pipen graph? I think that Icky Woods was ther signing cold cuts for $49. Nonetheless, I always have a blast buying and selling a few cards old school style - being able to hold and study the card before buying. Without commission, shipping, buyers premium. I was only able to attend on Sunday, but scored a couple of cards that I needed.
