What would a 10X10 booth cost for vendors, We can offer an educational forum to help consumers protect there homes from possible utility’s blackouts. I believe this would be a benefit to your customers. I look forward to your thoughts and prices to attend. Thanks
Hey Kevin,

If you improved the parking situation so a 70-yr-old not handicapped man can walk to the damn show from the car, I might go. The price is prohibitive along with a parking fee that screams “rip off”. I’ll save my time and money and go to a show this Spring when I get back home to Kansas. They only charge me $8.00, the parking is free, and volunteers shuttle golf carts around for those of us veterans with bad legs and hips… the golf cart rides are by DONATION!
I also agree that the admission prices is just too high now. My buddies and I look forward to attending gun shows in Tucson but will be changing our plans….and not attending any more CrossRoads shows as long as these high prices remain.
I too am reconsidering the show because of the high price of parking combined with the entrance fee. I’ve spent over $1,000.00 at the Crossroads shows in the past year. I enjoy them & am satisfied with the things I’ve bought & always look forward to the next one.
I am now considering changing my gun-shopping M.O. to exclude entrance-fee based gun shows.
Thanks for considering this issue.

I agree as well. $12.00 is much too high for a mere entry fee to a gunshot where thousands can be made in transactions. I have attended gunshots for over four decades. I have never seen one to date that could justify more than $10.00 as an entry fee. Those that did charge that much also made $1 and $2 discount coupons available to entice more customers with the discounts. Unfortunately, it appears the show promoters expect to make their money now at the cost of lost future revenue.
Agreed–just logged on to find the times and cost….looked for a discount ticket…but at $12 plus believe $5 to park, going to pass and take that $17 to an actual gun store for my items I am looking for. Did not even note any discounts for VETS–that I typically see. What a shame as I do enjoy browsing and seeing what is out there.
Was considering taking a Sunday drive over to check out the show because I am in the market for a new gun ($800 budget). However I just got to this site and saw the prices affiliated with entrance and changed my mind. For the trip over there, parking, and entrance, I will be looking at nearly $40 to spend an afternoon with my father looking for guns and it just doesn’t seem worth it. Especially considering there is much cheaper show next weekend… Having been an event promoter myself in the past and as a current Econ major, I would recommend finding a sweet spot in your admission pricing where your not turning so many customers away. You are leaving money on the table for yourselves and vendors, and that is just sad. You are stepping over dollars to get to pennies!
I have enjoyed this gunshow for years, but the quality of the vendors has greatly fluctuated from show to show.
Add to that the fact many of us are on “fixed incomes” and cannot afford to pay parking and admissions fees to attend with the wife and/or grandchildren just for the privilege of spending my money on here-today-gone-tomorrow vendors.
My recommendation — have a substantial discount for seniors, AARP, NRA, AzCDL — we the people who are truly interested in guns and will continue to spend $$$ on guns and accessories — if we do not feel welcome and appreciated at your gunshow, then we will spend $$$ elsewhere.
While not severely handicapped, the long walk from the parking lot was negated by the help of very friendly shuttle driver with golf carts.
The website, accessed Saturday morning before attendance, stated that the entry fee was $10.00 and offered a $1.00 off coupon. Upon arrival, we found out the fee was actually $11.00. On Sunday morning, the site stated the fee was now $12.00. A 10% raise the first day and then 20% the second day, a rather cheap tactic,
Most of the vendors dealt with were quite friendly and most helpful. Three were dealt with on a business level, two purchases and one sale. None offered paperwork on their transactions. One was the swap/sale of a weapon, one was the purchase of a holster for the weapon and one was the sale of a weapon. The transactions involved three different vendors. When asked for a proof of purchase for the purchased gun, the vendor offered a business card. The holster vendor also neglected to give a receipt. No way to prove ownership now or in the future if ever needed. The sale of a personal weapon also did not involve paperwork. My mistake.
The laxness in the above area does lower my rating a bit.
Well we were going to go to the gun show to buy a gun for my wife but a 24$ entrance fee, a parking fee and no military discount you can count us out. You would think being right next to Davis Monthan they would advertise to the military.
There is an antique fair today on the eastside, Tanque verde east of Houghton! Check it out!
Dang! Was going to take the family out today. Not for that price!
Same for me! I’m new to the area, but I’ve never heard of paying this much for a gun show and still have to pay for parking? I really want to go, but I’m not going to cough up this much money for a crap shoot. I think I just drive up to Cabela’s and the other real gun stores in Phoenix that day instead.
You guys are cutting your own throat.
I just got out of the shower to get ready to drive 45 minutes to the gun show. I went on the website to get the address and noticed the cost for parking along with entrance. This is nuts!!!! My trip is now cancelled, and will I NEVER consider going at this price. Please send a coupon for next year for the wife, and I attend.
