Dealer Guidelines:
Below is a list of guidelines which dealers should use when conducting business at the Michigan Military Show.
First, this is what you can expect from us:
1.) A show that is well promoted and advertised.
2.) Regular and consistent show dates to accomodate both dealers and collectors.
3.) A friendly and concerned staff that will assist you in any way possible to enhance your show experience.
4.) Excellent communication.
5.) All dealers will be treated as equally and fairly as possible.
Now, this is what we expect from our dealers:
1.) Keeping with the theme of the show, all items for sale should be of a military nature or military related (i.e., books, video documentaries, posters, photos, etc.). The occasional item such as police equipment, G.I. Joes, or a "Rosie the Riveter" lunchbox are acceptable as long as they represent a small percentage of your sale items.
2.) Please have your table(s) uncovered and ready for business when the show opens to the general public.
3.) Table priority for the next show will be givenĀ to dealers who remain set-up for the duration of the current show and on a "first-come-first-served" basis. Leaving early is unfair to those collectors who have paid to enter the show. Of course, there are some exceptions for "out-of-town" dealers who may need to travel a great distance. Each situation can be handled individually and we are always open to negotiation.
4.) All dealers selling firearms MUST comply with all federal, state and local laws. Firearms should have their breech open whenever possible to display that they are unloaded and safe to handle. Please, avoid commercial or modern firearms.
5.) Do NOT bring live ammunition, explosives, ordnance or fireworks to sell. De-activated weapons such as grenades, mines or "dummy ammo" are allowed.
6.) Reproduction items should be represented as such.
7.) Pets are prohibited in the show area. "Leader Dogs" for the blind are the exception.
8.) Please limit your number of sales people to a reasonable amount. If this is a concern, please contact us.
9.) When in doubt, good, old-fashioned, common sense should prevail.
If you have a special need, question or concern then please contact us. We will make every effort to accommodate you.
Our goal is to make your show experience the best it can be!
