i was sick an unable to attend the June 24/25th Torex in Toronto.
Did anyone go?
Care to share?

I went to the Torex site (above link) and saw the auction was cancelled: what happened there?

I went to TOREX on the Sunday.
It was pretty lame; hardly anybody was there and there were only a few dealers.
The bourse was in the basement of the hotel and there was no signage at the main entrance; only a small sign on the fire door leading to the basement stairway.
Maybe it was busier on the Saturday? I don't know...
I've been attending TOREX for years and it certainly has changed since the late 1990s/early 2000s...
I'm hoping that in the future, TOREX moves to a more central location; Driving to the airport is a serious inconvenience!

Me too! Sorry to hear it has fizzled out. I think the recent wave of high inflation has really hurt the hobby.
The last time I went it was down at the Harbour front hotel so I could take public transit. Ever since they moved it up to the airport hotels its been a "no-go" for me.

The Novotel on Queens Quay? That was a while ago. Since then it was out at the Airport Hilton for a while, then the Hyatt on King, and I understand it's back out in the airport district again. I haven't been out to its current location yet.
