Does anyone have experience taking a VW to sell at the Pomona Swap Meet? I'm wondering what time you need to arrive there on Sunday mornings and what time would be too late to get a decent spot.

Thanks for any help, I just don't want to get up at the crack of dawn if it's not necessary and I also don't want to get there too late, either.

The area to sell VW's is too big , it will never sell out.
First row usually fills by Saturday evening , but there will be plenty of room on the second or third row.
Gates open to the public at 5am and lots of people start leaving by noon.
Hope that gives you an idea.
Hope you sell your VW.

Pomona is great place to sell or buy used vw parts ..just these pass years less and less vw sellers "parts now days its getting dead .." but the thing that bothers me at pomona is that it's a swaptmeet .a swaptmeet is to get good cheap deals on vw parts .but the vw store venders sell there but there prices are the same as what they would sell at there store 😣 I think they should cut there prices a bit at the swaptmeet than people would buy ...it doesn't make sense bc if I wanted to buy from them I would just order from them online faster easier and I'm not the only person talking about this too a lot of people complain about it and how it doesn't make sense for them to sell at a swaptmeet..im not bashing vw store venders just pointing out what other vw folks are complaining about ...
