Dwight, I did know that Collectors West bought out the Expo show. Shortly after they bought it I noticed that the show went further down hill. In the past I have written email to the woman in charge at Collectors West (Marla) suggesting changes that would improve the overall quality of the show. I never received a response back. You are very correct about there being too many Expo shows. In December of last year I looked at their 2005 show calendar and I was shocked at how many three day Expo shows that there are this year. A few quality shows would be better than what we have now. I keep hoping someone like Lou Fascio of the Reno show will pick up our failing Expo shows. Portland just deserves better than what we have.
