2016 Snowmobile Swap/Show Thread

[Chester Copperpot]

Yeah, I ended up not going. I know Frank was in Hayward and Dan was at Mancation and didn't feel like sitting out in the rain for an hour to close up and head back.

Kinda figured it was going to be slow. I doubt my junk would sell because of the exact reason you said, everyone is looking for that 1 in 100 super good deal and nothing else.

It was actually a normal turnout. Swaps were setup all the way to the back of the "lanes" no rain either when we were there.

Wasn't impressed with the Milwaukee show at all its been getting smaller and smaller every year. You could tell by the amount of trucks in the parking lot when the show opens and all the empty space in the show area. Sucks. At least I got to see the sidewinder.

 

[CuzzinOlaf]

I don't like the layout they're doing now. Back a few years ago they had all the rows lined up and now it just seems like a cluster fuck.

 

[Eagle]

Instead of the Milwaukee show, I ended up going to Neilsens with a couple buddies who are looking to get back into sledding after a long break from the sport. One buddy (recently new member here too) ended up leaving with a 2016 Polaris Rush Pro-X 800 snowcheck edition that he got an amazing deal on and A LOT of accessories and gear. Was a fun day! Now to get the other buddy to buy in as well....

They probably had to get it up this way so it looks like it is still the same size. They had tables setup everywhere where booths used to be.

Like half a dozen vendors in the swap also. Sad.

Could be because it was Sunday and the packers were playing?

 

[Yaj Yak]

because internet

 

[Yaj Yak]

ill never forget the days back 20 years ago going to the show at the old lake county fairgounds, where it was buildings & buildings full of stuff, and shit laid out EVERYWHERE in between. ahhhhh nostalgia.

yuppp

I feel belvedere took over that swap "market" but it was still nice going out and seeing "local" vendors and dealers. That show was pretty big.

 

[Yaj Yak]

ugh the good ol days.

 

[PANDA]

Added BK Powersports Open House and Swap.

Not very big. But something to-do!
