Hey, this is Sleepless in Georgia... Sorry.
Me and my kids managed to hit Joefest for about an hour yesterday, and on my way out I snagged a Classified Major Bludd in the package (at the best price on the whole floor), from a gentleman who also had a lovely rack of Loose Classified figures that, if I had more spendy resources, I would've partaken of.
After getting home it occurred to me "Crap! I didn't get the dude's name, website, contact info, anything." He/You were the only one there selling loose Classifieds, and since I play w{COUGH} display all my figures, that's perfect for me. So now I'm trying to track this cat down for future business.
The transaction on my debit card says Russell.. my cross referencing the vendor list and google-fu... has turned up a number of potentials, but I realized he/you are almost certainly on here.
So... anybody know a Russell who is selling loose Classified figures at Joefest 2022?

Hmm. I didn’t see any loose Classified so there aren’t many options. Do you remember anything else about their booth?

White dude. Mid-ish to late 40's... that should narrow it down.

Seriously though. The stall was in the middle row. If you were facing it then your back was to the wall with the entrance and exits.
Had a card table with two slim locking cases with plexi tops containing various vintage stuff. Chairs behind that. Behind the chairs was a shelf with boxed Classifieds and a rack with loose classifieds in baggies.

I'm not ashamed to admit lots of the details are getting fuzzed into trying to maintain cohesion with a sweetly tolerant but utterly bored 15 year old girl; an enthusiastic but 'handsy' 11 year old boy, and my longsuffering dad... the background is starting to fade into one big smear of desirable plastic and aging nerds.

Was it John Russell of Chicken Fried Toys?

I know the booth you are describing but unfortunately I do not know his name. Maybe contact the Joefest man himself, Ed Schumacher on Facebook and he can figure out who it was based on the location.
