David,
Don't agree with your advice mate.
It depends on what one is looking for.
Last year I went and didn't spend a zak apart from
the entrance fee.
I guess I didn't really want for anything.
Now this year, I was in the market for an Oztent, to supplement my
camping needs when the
Camping Trailer was not practical.
Enquired about an Oztent RV3 which was priced at the RRP of $899. No bargain there.
But included, was a set of deluxe side panels and extra poles for no extra cost as a show special. Normal price for these $259.
So I bought one:-)
Personally, I like the venue. It is big enough to allow expansion for additional Companies that choose to participate. Plenty of free car
parking space as
well.
I think the venue is actually better than the previous ones at Victoria
Park Racecouse which had a poor layout and Ellis
Park which was restricted in size, very dusty in the dry and muddy in the wet..
Yes, there was a couple of noticeable absentees this year.
Sunshade Products and Roof Rack World were two vendors I was hoping to see there, but alas it was not to be.
I still think as a predominately 4WD focused show, it still offers the best collection of vendors.
One other very noticeable absence too.
No
sign of the HUMMER anywhere. Does it really exist?
Very poor marketing strategy from General Motors in not including it under the Holden umbrella.
