They keep getting better all the time!

We recently crossed the 4500 member mark and im sure that this has helped spur the feeding frenzy that IS the OLF Swap-a-Palozza!


Lets do it again REAL SOON! Eat Drink

I just hope we get more UK and Irish members. It would be great to get a few suppliers from here on board for future swaps, which in turn will boost members from Europe.

Lance and Brock, this was a blast! I'm always buying stuff on these swap meets, but this was my first time to sell. Thanks for the venue, thanks for the event, thanks for the effort!
Nicely done!

It was a lot of fun. I decided to sell a few things this year to help pay for my purchases but I just ended up buying even more laughing6-hehe There sure was some nice wood up for sale this year and I didn't get near as much of it as I would have liked.

I'm going to try to be better prepared for next year so I can buy even more bliss

Step 1. Build a guitar
Step 2. Build a guitar
...
Step 11. Build a guitar
Step 12. Buy more wood

I'm on step 1 at the moment, but I keep falling off the bandwagon :mrgreen:

First palooza for me too. Lots of fun. I mostly ended up scavenging the cheap leftovers :)
The few other things I wanted were snapped up in the first minute or two before I'd skimmed all the threads :(
Particularly the Somogyi book set that went for $150, and that camatillo set Steve sold for $85 (what on earth were you thinking, Steve?). I still almost regret letting someone else have the "Lord of the Rings" cocobolo set, but I have too many builds lined up as it is, and even after all those, I might not have the skills to do it justice.

Now back to step 1, just after I order some more stuff from Hibdon's monthly special...

I was thinking that yellow pine and purple marks-a-lots are fairly cheap, so why charge more? :D
