Objective observations: fewer vendors, fewer visitors (until about 12:00 am), so less range of models compared to the MGL Convention Möchengladbach.

Subjective experience: less sociable than the MGL-Convention.

DUS this year went better than I thought. It's been two years since I was at the last one tough, back in the old location. My expectations were pretty low for this one, given the new location. The consensus was that a lot of vendors didn't know what to expect and "packed light". It will take a few years to grow back to the levels it had back before the move.

Like Joshua said, fewer vendors and visitors than I remember it having. The location works, in a passage behind the loc-shop. It doesn't have the glam of that building at the airport.

The space does have some room to expand. I hope it does over the coming years. I think next year more vendors will show up, and with it more attendees. It will take a while to grow back to its former glory, but I have my fingers crossed.

I was there and it has been like something new if compared to the original boerse. Less vendors but you can not imagine something different because of the space available. Not bad to be in downtown but not so easy to join if don't plan to spend a weekend in DUS (if you arrive from Italy for example).
I found something interesting for my collection, but, in my opinion, the MGL meeting has been better.
I really hope one day the boerse will come back to the airport, the most important thing is to keep alive eventi like these...Happy collecting!!!

Thanks for the feedback. I will go to the next fair at MGL in November. I really miss these events, but I miss my friends there even more. It was always a pleasure - I hope we can continue that.
