I know decent is over the $1000 mark but i never seem to have that amount of disposable cash .... i figured if a good one gives many...

Wombat Swap Meet June 7-8
The good folks out at Wombat NSW, have been steadily building a good crowd for their swap meets but this year they have really kicked off in a big way.
It is on the same weekend as the Nats, but is only 85km's away from the nats so both might be possible!
