it costs around 20k to have a decent stall at the show.
there won't be many punters going
first day won't be any deals
2nd day they should start to feel uneasy at the lack of leads
3rd day panic, either sell it or pack it up in the van and take it back to the MD.
its so much easy to go home with a fat wallet than a full van and nothing for 3 days graft.
fingers crossed ive done my sums right.
i used to do the computer shows, bowlers manchester and everton sports park. if we had a bad day we'd give it away.

Don't think HM or Alltec are bothering, I find these shows tend to be same old same old.

 Carpex was a bit better but would only go every second show if work was quiet.
