Adelaide caravan show.

Well just came back from the show and thought i would post my opinion. First impression as you walk from the gate was that it was quite spreed out. Straight away you think the organizers are trying to cover up a bad turn out. Looked around the outside stalls and just found the same old same old. nothing new here so continued in to the pavilion. The new pavilion is quite flash and airy with plenty of room for the displays with out falling over each other, air con had been up dated and it made the hole pavilion more enjoyable.
I didn't think that there were to many if any new vans or camping trailers there, but what was there was presented far better than last year. This i think is because the customers are getting a bit more picky where they spend their cash. I did get a chance to see the Paramount Duet this time and found it to be just another copy of the Windsor Rapid, I didn't think it was finished off any better or worse than the Rapid. It would be who had the best deal at the time i think to which one you would go for.
Food and drinks again seem to be twice the price as normal and then you have to sit under the hot dome and try to enjoy that expensive over heated bad serviced excuse for refreshments.
Over all i think there were 200 hundred more stalls this year but the little bloke with his home made this or that have gone for ever, the prices of the stall sites are only affordable by big business, and even they are cutting down on what their bringing in.
Most so called show specials were in the stall owners heads i think, as a few things i priced two weeks ago from different businesses just to check the prices at the show were the same, and one was even higher. This was a jack on a poll that a jockey wheel can be put on, $285.00 two weeks ago from same place and show special was $315.00. ( I am not naming the jack on purpose) I don't know if this applies to caravans as this is going to be my project for the next show.
Well every year i say that's the last time i am going but every year i still keep going back, I am my own worst enemy I think.
cheers Shane.
