Champs Atlantic City

[STROKER]

Anyone gonna be there with a booth?
I may be interested in sharing a spot with one or two others. I am not gonna have time to fill a booth myself before the event and I'm just checking my options.
I'm gonna be there so it will be a good time to catch up or meet if you are there.

I wouldn't be involved in a booth..too noobie.... but I don't know anything about this. Is there any more info
About it?

[Ray]

ok...googled it..its pretty large.
Looks like something I'd like to stop in to see.

[Nomad]

I might be interested. How much?
I don't want to step on my distributors toes but I really need more money for my glass. Maybe you can help price it with me for a show like this? It's only about 3 hours drive for me.
I might loose my job over it is what I am afraid of. But like I said maybe I can get a steady flow of $25 bubblers wholesale year round out of it?

[Nomad]

I'm going to be 40 this year and I need to make some moves to make more money.
Not sure how right now. My prices are kind of low because I don't do any wholesale shows I believe. This show might be for me?

Nomad, Atlantic City sucks... Go to Denver or Vegas.

[Nomad]

Thanks for the advice.
Denver and Vegas is really expensive for me. It is far away.
Not to mention I had a bad show in Vegas once.
It made it so no one wants to help me financially to do the show also.
I have to make the other 5 designs of each style piece. I have an agreement with my distributor not to show the 6 designs I sell to them too. They show that stuff at all the shows.
I need a per piece raise I'm thinking.
My friends all make like over $100k a year.
I think I could do $50k if I could do some wholesale shows.

[Nomad]

Yeah I would like things to change.
It is so expensive to live here.
$1800 month for a small house and I make like only $20 k off glass about.
People are wondering how long I will keep it up.
I mean how long are you going to do it before you give it up because you're never going to be Bruce Springsteen. I am told.
Prices have gone up so much. Used to cost me $550 month for a house when I first started.

[Nomad]

FYI I found the info on the champs website. Still kind of expensive and confusing though.

I have to make the other 5 designs of each style piece. I have an agreement with my distributor not to show the 6 designs I sell to them too. They show that stuff at all the shows.
So... time to make some new designs?

Also, why are you resurrecting a thread from a year and a half ago? This thread was probably about champs 2015.

[Nomad]

Is there a show going on right now?
I'm owed money and no one is around right now
Could only be a show?

[Nomad]

I'm transitioning into production bubblers that are wrap and rake.
No more spoons.
