Odaiba Swap Meet 2010

I see meets like this in Japan frequently, wherein the primary attraction is less the gathering and more the fact that everyone brings the contents of their garages to sell and trade.

Why doesn't this happen in the US? I think the UMD meet this year would be a lot more entertaining if people had blankets covered in parts laid in front of their cars like you see at meets in Japan. Parts, diecast and plastic model cars, stickers, magazines, etc.

I have a few days worth of this coming, all courtesy of Remix's Photozou.

While not this impressive, I could still bring a pretty sizable pile of stuff to a swap meet, we just need to have one.

Is there something wrong with me because I looked at this photo and the FIRST thing that came to my mind was "Is that a Lotus Europa?" (far right).
