Sellers are welcome to pm me with a list of some items they'll be selling to give a flava^* of what might be available.

Best doing it that way as previous experience shows that when sellers put their own list up people start making offers! Once I get a few responses I'll post them here.

Table booked
John

Good to hear John, your table always has top quality items and rarely seen knick-knacks.

Any nice Webbo Prems for sale ?

I'm just waiting for another seller to pm me a taster of what he'll have for sale before posting up a few of the items that will be offered. I was asked by 2 sellers to post a few "tasters" but they must be on holiday as I've heard nowt back since . Thanks to the 2 who have pm'ed me some info...

To answer the question, yes there will be a Prems for sale, better than nice from the descriptions I've got and knowing the seller he's probably being conservative with the descriptions.
I'll post up the limited responses by Wednesday if nobody else messages me.

Hi Guy, there's no plan to operate that system as I understand it. We did do this at the first Melbourne Fayre and it got a mixed response with some being quite put out by it. HTH

[guy]

Would have thought as its a charity event that any extra would be in a good cause, would happily pay £10 as its for charity and it's not much more than entry to Birmingham or bisley

I do understand that, we also have the consideration that the Legion has some very noise sensitive neighbours, having a two tier entry did encourage a larger crowd who then waited outside the venue creating an issue for the Legion.
I do appreciate that some people would prefer to have a more leisurely look around and a chance to peruse the items beforehand, but having tried it the issues above probably mean that it won't be returning, but never say never.
