BCEFA Flea Market 2018 Collectors Unite!

Just planned my trip to New York City for the end of September to attend the BCEFA flea market once again. Had some great experiences over the past few years acquiring items from shows that I thoroughly enjoyed while vacationing in NYC. Highlights last year were rare items from Hamilton Hello Dolly and Dear Evan Hansen at great prices. I always find it curious why it takes so long to get details concerning this event as that would be helpful for those people who want to plan attending this year.
Last year I was on the lookout for items collectors and broadway fans  were seeking who could not attend and I managed to find many for them at the event. Please let me know if any of you fellow Broadway fans have any special requests as I will be happy to look out for specific items with the budget you have in mind again this year! You can either post here or private message me if you wish.
Hoping to see Bruce Springsteen on Broadway this time and hoping for a Springsteen table with collectibles.

What are fans most interested in seeing this year in terms of show tables?

If there are any insiders or organizers this year that have any information please share some details.
Looking forward to another great flea market again this year in the hopes that they break records as they do every year.

I'm really hoping Hello, Dolly! has a table, given it just closed. Not sure it will, but fingers crossed!

Will any GHD stuff be there?

I'll be looking for next to normal stuff too but both of those are so unlikely. I guess I'll just be waiting to see, but I'm going with a team so ~maybe~ I can make comet happen."

 

Or....I have a Great Comet sweater I’ve been trying to sell! Would you be interested??

- hello, Dolly stuff
- once window card. I’ve been looking for years!
- autograph table. (With Alice ripely, Cheyenne Jackson .... really throwing it out there but. John Groff. Lea Michele. John Gallagher jr. Aaron Tveit. Bernadette Peters. Chita.)
 Did Once ever have an actual window card? I have a poster with Milioti and Kazee but was a standard window card produced when they left the cast?

Apparently they did. I think it might just be that poster you mentioned.  I saw the show a couple weeks before it closed and the lady said that they had sold out of once posters and next restocked.  But it’s the only show I’ve seen that I still don’t own a window card for. 

Also I'm curious on people's opinions on something. Obviously this is a charity event, and that many stars take the time to meet with fans at the autograph table. However if you see a star walking around, just casually, is it inappropriate to ask for a picture? I remember freaking out bc I saw Andrew Keenan-Bolger just hanging around and really wanted to ask for a picture, but I felt it was the wrong time, especially how you donate to get access to the autograph tables. What are is your opinions?

Last year the DEH arm casts cost $500 each from what I recall... and the price did not budge at all even later in the day. Good luck!

Any idea when to anticipate the announcement of tables and stars appearing?

I think last years it was about a week out from the event. Maybe a little bit more.

I'll be looking for ANYTHING Angels In America related, and I'm curious to see what kind of stuff Cursed Child is going to have (in hopes that they will, in fact, have a table).
