[pcon]

I'm thinking about going, just don't know how feasible it is to drive down there and not buy anything. Crapola.

[Diver Dan]

Do you go the first day to get all the rare super LE nice coral? Or wait it out and go on the second day to get all the deals from vendors that dont want to take their coral home with them?

[Techknowledgy]
