VERY Early...But I Wanted To Know Who Has Been To The NARBC Trade SHow in Anaheim?

[Sassy]

I know that the SD show hasn't even happened yet, but I won't be able to make that one, so I am wondering if anyone can give insight as to how big and fun the NARBC Convention and Trade Show is in Anaheim, I found a killer hotel deal so I want to book it early if everyone suggests that I go

I'd love to hear what you think. I am only used to the Sacramento, CA reptile show by upscale....so that's all I have to go off of.


I appreciate the info!

I think I'm going to be hanging out at the Anaheim show this year... It will be the first year I'm not in it (done it since it's first year in 2004), but it's a pretty fun show. Lots of vendors, lots of customers. I think the SD show might outdo it this year (the SD show is marketed and promoted much better, and will become the biggest West coast show). Anaheim is bigger than the Upscale Sacramento show (I did the Upscale show in 2006). There's just a bigger customer base in So Cal than there is in Northern California, so it's easier to get the vendors there. I'm missing out on the SD show this year, pretty dissapointed.

Yeah Ive been there once before...it's probely the best show out of the year in my opinion. More venders and selection then the IRBA Pomona show that they used to have.

So happy for you guys Brad! You sound so excited! People always tell me what I do with my animals is my male form of "nesting", and preparing myself to take care of kids. I have always had that parental instict, I guess I can see how i channel that through my Chams. Just remember... Kids don't eat crix and roaches!j/k You are going to have two happy lil guys with the Chams around!

Sassy,
Never been... But I will see you there!

I'm not planning on setting up a booth there this year
but certainly 2009

Too bad about not being able to make the San Diego show
I know that many people will be selling their best stock at that one
(counterbalanced by the extra vendors at the LA show)
so they're about equal in the final wash

Hope to see everyone soon!!!

I can't wait to meet everyone that's going We should all plan to meet up Sat night at the auction or something fun like that Wooo Hooo - Hurry and and get to September already! he he he
