That's a good idea, but I don't think implementing a security system in some way would be too hard to do... The only issue is the fact that now we even NEED one, which I think is such a disappointing fact...

yah, sign of success.

small crowd easy to remember what's, what.

Large crowd, too hard to keep things on track without extra measures.

Bin idea is good though, then people can enjoy swap longer/get to know people without worry. Is why I left earlier than liked. Thought about driving back and just hanging some but I live in NV, little too far for second trip. Plus I probably would have ended up buying more frags from late arrivers

Hey Thomas, I can't believe someone will actually snatch your beer! I shall buy you and Albert some beer again next time and play some drunken badminton. This is so lame. I will volunteer to look after your beer next time. Anyway, it's really sad to hear these kind of things is happening at the swap meet. Perhaps this time we were missing the camera man! We can keep a camera running next time and have a door check. This should keep these kinda things from happening.

Thomas, don't blame yourself for the thievery. Let's blame the jerk who took it.

But in all seriousness, I hope this was a once in a blue moon issue and it doesn't happen again. Joanne and I had a great time at the meet, buying nice frags and meeting good people. We are looking forward to the next one already. Many thanks to people like you, Albert, Tyler, and the rest of the gang to set all this up. And special thanks to the Mezz for letting us use the venue once again.

Sorry to hear about this. Really brings the atmosphere down. It's karma what comes around goes around.

I'm a bird breeder so we have bird marts twice a year, and the same thing happened there, someone was talking to a customer and when they turned around a bird was stolen.
Since then we have instituted a coloured sticker system-every birdmart gets a new colour-all sellers get these stickers and once you sell a bird you place the sticker on the cage/container. Someone at the door checks that the bird does have the sticker before being allowed out.

I agree.. I think we will organize that that we will do a storage be bin or tank with heater.. names and numbers put on.
There will be marked bags.. who's coral and how many..
There's ways to fix this.. but we want to keep it a friendly community..

I'll help thomas and albert figure this out.. guarantee it won't happen next time
