Looking for some general feedback / help and advice.
A good friend of mine's family are the organisers of a large number of antiques fairs and car boot sales in West London area, and have been doing so for the last 20 plus years.
They are currently getting into other types of fairs and have asked me to help organise a collectors toy fair.
We are currently looking to have first one on a Saturday in October, we'll using the next few months to do some research and drum up some interest from both buyers and sellers.
We want this to be an ongoing event not just a one off, depending on the success having 3 or 4 a year.
They already have infrastructure in terms of venues, staff and catering. A venue has been selected which is located just off the A40 at Ruislip.
What I'm looking for some help on is:
1. Links to other toy collecting related forums.
2. Details of any dealers you think would be interested in selling I can contact
3. Would you make the trip?
4. Any other ideas or suggestions would welcome.
Once we firm up detail I'll post updates. Hoping to create a great new hunting ground for everyone.
