It cost me $50 total to attend the opening night event. $40 for the admission ticket and $8.00 to park my car. I also tipped the bartender $2.00 for a drink. I was at the show for less than an hour. It wasn't that great. Most of the products featured were in poor taste and not that interesting. I have attended better shows in the past. On the weekend, they were offering tours of homes for $75.00 a day. Instead, I went shopping and bought some nice accesories and furniture for my home. If your firm is paying your way - then this is worthwhile - otherwise - the ca|boom is a bomb and a total waste of money and time. Ask any of the local shop owners in LA about the show. They'll all say the same thing... Furthermore, the show itself was in a tiny civic center in Santa Monica. A real show would be at the LA Convention center. If you're serious about furniture - go to the IFCC show or the big show in Milano. This show is a hack. +Todd I attended the event.
