It's Idaho - everyone already owns all of the stuff you can only dream about in CA. ;D

You need therapy for that exposure in Idaho that left you wanting. This one is 11 acres under roof, heck they usually have a 1/2 of a basketball court full of just safes at this one.

What were they asking for the 3 screw 30 carbine?

Bummer! I am about to go to my first show in Valley Forge, PA, hopefully this one will be better (it has a good reputation.) Any advice on what to look for and what to expect? Do they have new or only used? Should I haggle or is it like at the shops where they stick to the prices?

TAB has been in Ca. to long, he forgets that Idaho has a population about the same as his COUNTY.
My Dad went to a "Tea Party in a town near where he lives Friday. He said about 300 people showed up.
That may not seem like much but the towns population is under 200.

Have an idea of what you might be interested in and know what a good price is for it. I have been burned too many times because I have seen something for a good price but decided to keep looking for a better deal. Come back to the table in time to see someone else paying for the item. Moral of the story: If it's a good price and you can afford it, jump on it before someone else does.
Don't be afraid to haggle. The worst that can happen is they tell you to kiss off. ;)

I told you guys it was a complte let down, the last time I went into gun show up there was great.

Most people tell me it takes 3 or 4 different trips to that one to see it all. I was supposed to go with a friend last year but his wife's health went south and we didn't get to go.... Guys I know who've been tell me you can spend both days walking the thing from open to close and STILL not see all of it. Hope I get to go some day....

Ran into the same thing last month here in Indiana. I have decided I will not attend any more gunshows unless it is the Indy 1500 Gun and Knife show. For the price I paid to get in the last one I could have bought a box of shells. And they were trying to sell crap guns for the price of new ones.
