I was searching Craigslist for some parts and came across this. http://seattle.craigslist.org/tac/pts/3613646867.html

This has been going as long as I can remember, although just like any event that starts out somewhat small and with good deals, over the years this has gotten huge and pricey. I don't think I've walked out with anything in several years due to all the gold plated items people are selling. But is still a fun get away for a day.

They've made it to where all the good deals are on the day before when the vendors set up. When it opens to the public, the prices shoot up. Still able to find good deals, just not like you used to.

I might end up going just to see what all they have out there for sale. I'd like to find a swing out tire carrier for a decent prices before I attempt to make one.

I went last year, I didn't get there till about about 10 and all the good deals appeared to be gone. They had some good vendors there with some good deals but most of them I could beat on the internet. That said if you are looking for some stuff there is a lot of it there. Me and a couple buddies are headed up, we'll see how it goes.

Hell if nothing else we can all meet up for a beer

I'm going of course. Looking to get Dana 44 stuff for both my jeeps. Maybe a set of tires if I'm lucky. Stock up on gear sets

I'll be up there. Grab a hi-lift, hopefully some spare shafts for front and rear, and some other junk :-)
