I've been to Hershey a couple of times and to Ski Roundtop Aircooled swap as well, both Porsche events.

Most people are there to sell. But there are some that really should just stay at home bc they don't want to part with their stuff. Honestly, I can't see the logic of fuel/transportation costs, entry costs, and the time to mark your stuff at unobtanium prices and then pack it all up again. I guess that is the actual hobby and selling isn't a priority.

Obviously and so as not to confuse, this doesn't apply to the guys at Unobtanium (https://unobtanium-inc.com/menu). They are there to sell and are pleasant to talk with. And they have great gift bags...
