I really did not walk the floor as much as I wanted too. Got too busy yapping with all the people at ITG and members from various boards. It was huge and I would say at least twice the size of the Expo's in Toronto. But I think you would be better served going to the expo whereas they are 85% Hockey and 15% all others. Where the National is more Baseball & Football. You had to find the hockey dealers and they mostly had GU'd & Autos more than the inserts from what I saw.

so maybe better to make a trip up to the Toronto show, instead?

Yes without a doubt. Deals are better in Toronto than here. Plus if you have never been Toronto is a fun town. HOF, Gretzky's Restaraunt, Yonge Street etc... You will have better luck finding what you need there and more to choose from. JMO

I have been to the last 3 Nationals in Chicago and I am a bargain box hound and I will say it is far and few between to find any hockey worth writing home about. I really only hit the .10-.50 boxes but I spend all 4 days doing it and come home with more than I can handle but very little is hockey! I would say you are much better off checking out the Expo in my opinion.
