Really annoy me, you expect to find some really good deals, but the dealers at the shows still expect you to pay high street prices.
I went to one recently, and there were a good selection of Tokai's for sale, only a few of which that were GAS worthy, and they were on the Tokai Distributer's stand. There were some nice Tokai T'birds, but for what the dealers were asking, I could have gone to my local music shop and got one cheaper!
Sorry, general rant alert (plus my typing has gone to pot as the cat is lying on my left hand!).
I had to haggle with one guy to get a reduced price on some strings, had I bought them online, I would have got a better deal.
It's really annoying, and kind of spoils the vibe of a show for me, I know the dealers are there to make some money, but at least they could reduce their prices to a touch below the high street prices.
