Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Looking for feedback on the Poughkeepsie show
Last minute change of plans - I was unable to attend.
I'm looking for feedback from both customers and vendors...How was the show?
Attendance? Sales?
I'm interested in vending in September, so I'd really appreciate any feedback.
Thanks.

Well I can tell you the attendance was very good. There will be pictures posted from the show that should give an idea of how many people came through. A very steady stream of people. My estimated guess is over 1500 people attended the show. I can speak for Azo Reptiles and Simple Animal Tracker and both of them did very well, and both will be at the September show.

Thanks, Tom.
Kind of surprised that nobody else - whether vendor or attendee - has any feedback.

These types of threads are not viewable on the main screen so unless someone is actively looking to post in here I don't think many will. But if you go to www.herpnerds.com and go to the guestbook you will see all the positive things vendors and attendees had to say about the show. Also on their facebook page there are a lot of responses to how well the show went as well as pictures. I'm sure the September show is going to be amazing, most of the vendors that were there already renewed their tables for the next show.

Jarrad here from SimpleAnimalTracker and we did very well. In my opinion the turnout was great and I have already reserved a spot for September. The customers had good things to say as well when I was out walking around talking to people.

One thing to put into perspective is it was the first show unlike White Plains which is well established and has been around for a while now, so for the first show it was pretty damn good. As for vendors, due to it being the first show a lot of vendors were skeptical, but I think the next show will have more vendors based on the success of this show.

Hope when you do the shows that you do not have the same product as everyone else. Some people have over choked the market with balls,beardeds,leo geckos,etc. Hope that when you do though, all goes well for you there. Good to hear that there is still some success out there for good vendors. I haven't done a show in a quick minute,too much time out in the field collecting introduced exotics here in S.Fla. We supply several of the big importer/exporters here.Let us know if we might have anything here intrest to you and we might be able to help when the shows come up.C.B. and wild caughts if needed. Good luck to all vendors in you upcoming event in Sept.Thanx GEO!
