Hello Ian, I don't use any fancy aftermarket editing software on any of my images, diagrams or photos, just what came with the laptop, which as I write this, is Vista 'Premium' so that means the good old basic 'Paint' program.

Kempton seems to be an up and down event and Sunday's was a down (for me anyway as a trader). Didn't sell a single boxed Matchbox. By the way, hello Ghosty. It's down to you that I've found this forum.

Stephen (Tall bloke with the long hair selling Matchbox, Corgi, Dinky).... plug over!

Hi Stephen try listing a few things on this site especially if they are mint in a mint box Pete

Hello Stephen, glad you could make it. Sorry to hear about Kempton and having seen your toy fair stock on a number of occasions, I know that you have such good models, making it even more amazing you did not sell any Matchbox!

Anyway Stephen, a very big welcome to the forum, this is where all the experts hang out (some tend to hide until their favourite model shows up!), so any models you have that you think some of the forum's members will be interested in, just post some pictures, or just post pictures of your own favourite models.

Enjoy your stay here and I look forward to some of your posts.

Regards,
Kevin the GHOSTHUNTER.

Thanks GhostHunter,

I will be at Shepton Mallet toyfair this Sunday (12th October ), so will see if I do any better (Can't do any worse). I always enjoy Shepton as a trader, but this is as much to do with having a laugh with the people around me, than the huge profits I make (if only!).

Stephen

Good luck Stephen at Shepton Mallet, unfortunatley I won't be there, so you can relax and have a good Day, without me nagging on about Rolls-Royce all the while...

How do you rate Bulldog fairs (Shepton organiser)? I'm moving to Dorset in 2 weeks, and will be looking for fairs to trade at.

I've booked a table at Westpoint, Exeter on 2nd November. Got lots of new stock too. Will anyone else be going?

Sorry no, too far for me at the moment.

Shepton is well established and seemingly well organised. It's the only Bulldog Fairs show I do, so can't comment about Exeter or any others.
