TCF! Man I miss it sorely, at least how it used to be! I attended first I
think around 1995/1996 at Mercer County Community College, and I was blown
away. So so so many good memories, so many things bought and sold. Having
my friends sleep over so we could wake up at 4am and start the trek from
the Philly burbs, driving my Dads Ramcharger loaded with a trailer full of
stuff, and coming up with a trailer full of new stuff.
Some of the new stuff came from the dumpsters, which had no less than 5
people in them at most times LOL, myself included.
If anyone has pics of the former TCF, I wonder if we can set up a shared
album they can be uploaded to? I'd love to see some. I have I think a
couple pics, but literally just that.I remember the crowds coming in, I
think they'd bus people in from Manhattan and other areas, and they had a
"locker" area where people could stash their buys. I remember seeing all
sorts of crazy stuff in the pile including 21" CRT monitors at the time.
I also still have the TCF book from 1995 (and a few others).
