Lincome Barn Wargames Society in Bristol UK is hosting its next Table Top Sale on Sunday 20/5/18
Once again we should have 40 + tables of gaming goodies up for grabs.

This year's event is being organised by Carole. Her e-mail is molly.moggins@gmail.com

Tables are now available at £10.00 GBP each [must be pre-booked] but are going fast so if you want a space please get in touch with Carole.

The event is open for buyers from 10.00 – 12.30 & public entry is £2.00 GBP
If you want to get in earlier than we do an ‘early bird' ticket for £4.00 GBP which gets you in from 9.30

Parking & hot food will be available throughout.

Please note that there is not a B&B at this event

Please feel free to stay on after the sale closes. Tables will be available for gaming – so you can try out the army you have just bought!
Although we can supply some scenery & cloths, please bring what you feel you may need. If you wish to reserve a table please either complete the appropriate part on the form if you are a seller or just Carole know

There is more info on the Table Top Sale page on our web site bristolwargaming.co.uk

Thanks

Just a quick reminder that this is happening on Sunday.

We're fully booked with 40 tables of bargains, hot & cold food and drinks plus if anyone wants to stay for the afternoon there will be a gaming session.

If you're trading then the doors will open at 8.00a.m

so this is not a show, per se, but just a table sale. Interesting. Wonder if, if successful, the idea will catch on across the UK. Perhaps you could do an after action report please?

Hi Marc, we have been running these since 2004 & yes they are quite successful!
We have space for about 40 tables & for the last 5 years or so they have all been taken with a reserve list waiting.
We normally get about 100 paying visitors with probably another 100 in the Hall from our members & the sellers – who of course are also looking to spend.
Some traders but they are there incognito selling off old or surplus stock or even there own surplus collections.
There are a few other sales & I think the one organised by Ryan McKnight in Penkridge is now a good healthy annual event each January.

They are good fun & the emphasis is on pile it high & sell it cheap!
