[QUOTE="Diggummup, post: 427024, member: 5877"]Living in South Florida, I've always considered Arcadia as an antique sellers town. By that I mean the whole town is involved in selling antiques. The downtown area has a monthly antique fair for the last 20 years. I went there once maybe 10 years ago. Everything was overpriced in my opinion. I'm sure it hasn't changed. My main concern would be the company having the sale. In my experience, they are the usual factor that will determine whether or not the sale is worth going to. Some of these companies, many of them actually, price their wares too high for any reseller to purchase. I've been at sales and seen items priced higher than what I could sit at home and buy them off ebay for, delivered! I have a select few companies that I will deal with locally. I've learned through the years which one to avoid also. Having said all of this, if I was 100 miles closer I would check it out, But I'm not driving 160 miles to a sale from a company I am not familiar with.[/QUOTE]
