I guess everybody's perception is different. I read that attendance is the
lowest in a decade and two meteorite dealers, one artifact dealer and one
mineral vendor I talked to said they would be lucky to earn their show fees
back and they probably will not be returning next year. It looks like a
buyers market to me.

Tucson is jumping. All hotels full. More people than in many years. Sales
are good. Supply is way down. Prices are up because supply running out.
The show is great. Last year was my best year at the show, didn't sell a
million $$$ but actually not far from it.
People with no material and no ambition should stay home, as the show is
really active and walking required. The hotel parking lot was completely
full this morning, first time in a few years actually despite major flooding
rain.

It looks like only 9 meteorite vendors posted information on the Tuson
Information page so the show seems to be somewhat subdued this year;
probably a sign of the times. I decided not to attend this year for many
reasons. The only thing I will miss is the IMCA dinner and the Michael
Blood auction which no longer exists.
I would rather spend my hard earned funds from artifact sales on searching
for meteorites and other minerals.
Hopefully, some images of the IMCA dinner will be posted,

Hi all,
Any pics from Tucson? I wish I could have gone this year, and would love
to see what goodies I’m missing out on….
