I should be down depending on the hockey tournament in Pittsburgh. If it's the last weekend in July yes. If it's that weekend in August no. More like buying Wednesday and Thursday if I have the weekend tournament.

I'm certain I will be going for a day or two. I live an hour away, so the drive is not a big deal. The days probably depend on who is signing at the show. This will be my 3rd National (NJ & Baltimore) and I enjoy each one. I'm just getting back into the hobby, so I will probably look for PC or Vintage cards. In addition my girlfriend likes Vintage stuff, so we would probably will hit up every table and see what people have.
I'd be interested in meeting some people there if we cross paths.I collect vintage in all sports and rookies. However, I do love any Red Sox, Bears, Penguins or Celtics that I need for PC! Need 1959 Topps Baseball cards for a set (ending stages). My cards come from smoke free environment, so please be upfront if your cards are not. Also if your cards are creased or bent, be honest about it.
