So charge 'em a buck, give 'em a name sticker and consider 'em registered. Not considered open to the public that way. If it is a good idea, it is worth pursuing. If it is not a good idea, then it is not worth pursing. If there are rules that make it more difficult, then the optimum workaround needs to be defined. Ed L.

In some states, there is no sales tax required for sales within the convention if it's closed, but there is a sales tax on every transaction if the sales floor is open to the public. In many states there is a requirement for extra insurance if the public is to be allowed in. This can cost a bundle, even for one day's worth of insurance. > > The WorcesterMAconvention in 1998 was one of the last to seriously consider an open-to-the-public day, even to the point of advertising it, but the state sales tax situation and the insurance problem killed the public day. > > Dick Karnes > > > > > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] > ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
