Does anyone else feel like there are more options on Saturday but better prices on Sundays as vendors try to get rid of corals and fly back without much stock back home.
It varies
Last two shows, best deals were on Saturday as many vendors dont want to wait until Sunday to find they are shipping stuff back home

Correct, especially people who travel far...aka coral vendors...don't like taking stuff home, they will give big discounts, but the issue is...you get what they have leftover, so you may miss out on something really special that you wanted. My nephew tried to get me to do 2 day tixs.. but it was too rich for my tank!!

It really depends on the vendor. I've seen some who will try to wholesale items on sunday just so they have less to take back, I've also seen smaller booths on saturday try to get rid of stuff as quickly as possible too. So case by case basis haha

For sure! Does anyone know what time the daily raffle is? I didn't plan on going, but my 13yo is actually excited about it so I might make the 2hr trek. :)
Always about 40 minutes before end of the day
