Did you end up going? A friend of mine went and said the mart is definitely dying which is a shame. Didnt you use to be a dealer there?

I was indeed, for many years. I wouldn't say it was dying, more like comics have been superceded by other collectibles. That said, there are less specialist dealers than there were. My gripe was that there were no new punters turning up...it was generally the same people every time. Still worth attending though.

...still worth attending, (despite no trains from Watford & half hour delay on the M1 southbound, due to a crash) possibly a few regular dealers missing due to the bank holiday weekend. Still, at least 'Chelski' dropped 2 points!

I hear they are charging punters £5 for early entry (i.e. before noon).

What he said was there were less specialist dealers like you said but also its getting smaller with only 2 rooms being occupied. By the way whats up with your website. When i click on the link i taken into realms of fantsy.
