Luckily Mac84 was there :) Hunting for Bargains at the VCF Swap Meet (June 2023) <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4DVhM3ECl0> On Fri, Jun 16, 2023 at 3:36 PM Jeffrey Brace via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:
Ethan,
I couldn't tell you about the deals as I was at the gate most of the time and was only able to take quick looks on my way to/from the porta potty or getting food from the firetruck. I did hear during breakfast that one guy was overpriced, but most people were reasonable and had good stuff.
Can anyone else fill it in?
I *can* tell you that some were able to get great deals from Steve Anderson. Like Dmitry got a Turbo Grafx 16 with a bunch of games for a decent price. Someone got an Atari Stacy 4. Others got some great deals as well.
If I was you, I would *always* plan on coming to the VCF swap meet. There always seems to be good deals. I suggest that you come to the next repair workshop July 8 & 9. We plan on making another trip to Steve's house the morning of July 9 after breakfast.

A few of us NoVA dudes were planning to go to swap meet but didn't. Then maybe regretted not going? Dunno.
Tell me about the deals I missed.
I think I saw in the Mac84 or another video the CDi? How much was the NES (though really only interested in random NES games.) Looked like quite a bit of variety from DEC Desksides to in the box Apple II stuff to TRS-80s and more?
Should hopefully make it to the System Source swapmeet.
