Advice for a first time York meet
Posted by Anonymous on Monday, October 11, 2004 8:15 AM
I will be heading to York for the first time. Any advice on traffic, parking etc. Also how are prices? I was told that if you see something, buy it or you might not see it again. Is this true? How long does it take to look at all of the halls.

Go on Friday, get there by 8:45 ( opens at 9:00), plan to spend the whole day, and don't make the mistake I almost made (was not a member at the time). you must be a member of the TCA or be a guest of one and follow the arrows on the floor (don't go against traffic in the halls). The prices are pretty good and depending on the item there my be many of what you are looking for. Having never been, I think you will be overwelmed by just the shear size of the show and amount of items for sale. Good luck.
