I was thinking more of having a booth, but then I wasnt thinking about how much of a pain in the ass it would be to lug products up here.. or what kind of customs hassles youd run into

Doing shows can be a real pain in the arse, so we pretty much stick to the local Erotica LA convention and then just attend others (like AVN, AMNE, Lingerie Show, etc.). Standing on our feet for endless hours and having to talk non-stop can be draining beyond belief, but it's also a great way to get quality face time with people who might visit our shop and website, as well as find cool new stuff to try out.
Hey, if you're heading worldwide, come to NZ We even got Ron Jeremy, Evan Stone, and some chicks that Kiwi could name to the last one. AND I could teach you how to drive considerately!

Of course you wouldn't have to drive! I don't trust you behind the wheel
The biggest show is in Auckland (the biggest city), but I remember when I lived in the large town/tiny city of Palmerston North, there was a show there too - but I was 8 month pregnant at the time and a) I didn't think it would be a good look, and b) wouldn't have done well standing/walking for so long.
It's in late August this year, and I'm quite sure it's teeny tiny compared to ones elsewhere, but should be fun in any case. The website is here - http://www.eroticaexpo.co.nz/index.html

Well, we've offered before to help out with shows (wink wink nudge nudge) but also unfortunately it looks like we're probably out of commission (at least I am) for a while, as it probably wouldn't do to have a baby that I'd be breastfeeding at the show. And he'll be on the teat until at least he's about a year, maybe a few months older.
