I remember guys in our group thinking they got a great deal on leather gloves, but once they got them home and had a good close look at they, they realized that what they bought were seconds, or thirds.

It is a waste of time and the show is always busy I'm the same way but I do enjoy the Peterborough show even though I haven't been there in a few years. A friend of mine, however, recently told me the Peterborough show was bought out by the same group that runs/owns the T.O. show? I like the family/flea market feel to the Peterborough show so I hope they retain that instead of going to the commercial route like they did to the T.O. show.

LOL Years ago we scored not bad when Doo dealers were flogging their clothing at dirt cheap prices. One year Arnies was there and we picked up our modular helmets and it worked out two for the price of one. When I was looking for communicators they were cheaper at the store than what Radio World was asking for them at the show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I quit going when I realized that 75 percent of the vendors were selling Poo-laris fix-it kits and the other 25 percent were selling Poo-laris durability kits, neither of which smart 4 stroke sledders would never need.
