Agreed, it's not right when they let punters in and you're setting up. Not cool but glad you did ok. I was in two minds with Norwich as Ricky Bowtell is a nice fellow and a great host sadly I haven't done as well as I'd had liked when I went to Brighton in the summer and it's the same kind of deal with that after 2 hours it was dry. I remember reading someone complaining that there were only 10 traders at the last Norwich one you went to. That being said I wish Ricky well. It's not all bad as you get exposure when you go to these places, I might have not done well at Brighton but people who remembered me bought from me at London so thats that. Well you be at Leeds Feb 2nd? I'm in two minds as for me it comes down to what the weather is like.

Those guides were a bargain! I love those things, used to have stacks of them, whittled them down so I only have them for my fav games now, but they’re awesome to flick through! Got to admit, I don’t miss the days of having to re arrange my shelves every few months to accommodate all my new purchases! I considered the sliding shelf racks at one point like they have in libraries, not cheap but best use of space! “It’s not a gaming room, it’s a game library” I like that 😂. I saw a solution once that made the games look cool to display and made good use of space but I don’t think your shelving would be wide enough, good mate of mine used to put a row of forward facing games that he wasn’t fussed for against the wall then the average games spine out in front of those, then his favs forward facing at the front. Probably easier to love mate 😂

Interesting collection. You have everything but also nothing, what a quandary you find your self in with the lack of space. I would keep those sport titles especially with the Mega Drive as they are very much part of the collection as much as any other Game. Perhaps it’s best to take out the superfluous items in the room such as the India Jones items and put them elsewhere as it’s confusing the rooms purpose as a games library and the ironing board I don’t comprehend why that is even there.

Happy New Year to you too 👍 Nice little Galager machine, they do look cool. Good to hear the toy show went down well for lizard retro, always going to be a worry incase it didn't go well when it's a new style of event, I don't like that way of letting early birds in whilst your setting up though, sounds a bit awkward tbh. Norwich gaming market sounds like a good one, being in a shopping centre is a novel idea, glad you was happy with your take. Your room was always going to be a store room type of thing due to its epic proportions lol you said its exactly as you planned, had to be because of the sheer numbers involved, it had to be spines showing, I love to see game box artworks like Craig's recent tour and his bank of systems but your collection is exempt from that type of thinking and working, you've your systems used for testing stock/your games and your switch for actually playing games so your sorted, shame your going to have to possibly warehouse a load, you'll work out the best way forward for tootys library 👍
