It's been a while. Shall I pick a date that doesn't clash with other events and advertise a bring and buy Sunday afternoon?

How about a bring and buy Saturday afternoon?  I would be there if I wasn't working Sundays.

Problem with Saturday is we have to pay for that day as well as the Sunday... and most people can only come and play 1 day per weekend. Also we currently have to book 18 month in advance for our events for Saturdays... we might have to wait awhile until a Saturday is free.
However I'll enquire about Saturdays for the next few months and see if any are free. I'll post here what I find out.

Vent, we pick a day, advertise it to as many wargamers around Auckland as possible that we are having a bring and buy to try and get loads of people turning up. We then set up some tables along the wall where people lay out what they want to sell/swap with their name and a price they want. And then people play as usual... and when you have a break you go look at all the goodies on display and talk to the owners to make deals. We had a pile of other Auckland wargaming club people turn up last time to have a look, and to sell/swap so it was a fun club day.
I'll post a date once I've looked at the calendar of event coming up so we don't clash.

Will a bring and buy day be a standard sunday, or is there a chance we could make it a little longer and run some mini events like we have in the past?

Once a couple of dates are thought as potentials I'll contact the council and see if we can extend the booking. Last time we ran a day long event. This time I think we could try and extend a couple of hours into the evening, but not the morning as we have already superceeded the morning group a couple of times already this year. Only problem with going into the evening is that it's a Sunday... some people might prefer not to... and after 6pm the hall cost doubles per hour.
Basically it's a numbers game. How many people would be keen to extend the Bring and Buy day until 7pm? (extra 2 hours)

I would hang around and have a gander, although I think you would only need 1 extra hour to have enough time to look around.

Rightio, I'll start an event thread and post about the place. If anyone knows a gamer not on this forum, let them know.
