That is funny, there was one of those fallen man ones here in Puerto Rico last year, the guy who has it also has the Beast Inflatable. He has it down here in Puerto rico right now.

It was at the Michigan State Fair last August as well, set up in the old kiddieland area (kiddieland was moved to be part of the entire midway).

Kris, it costs money to run MCW, it is not free. To have 99% of the site still free we should be happy. Look at what Carnival Magazine, local newspapers, Trade N' Times, etc. charge for classified ads, $10 from Matt is not unreasonable at all.

I am happy you made $10. Thats more than I ever made on a classifieds section since 1995. I didn't even bother to think about charging when we set up our classifieds at Carny Town.

i understand that the website needs funding but those people looking for work in this business sometimes just dont have the 10 bucks to post an ad "looking for a hole". and also a credit card for payment could be an issue. there are alot of people that dont have funds or a credit card.just making a point not a complaint.

Charging ten scroggs is a great idea.
It keeps all the troll ads out and the overpriced inflate ads in![;)]
