I have attended the Lancaster show 4 times and enjoyed it the first few times. I did notice though, that nothing ever changed there. Every year it was the exact same vendors in the exact same locations selling pretty much the exact same old thing as last year. I would not attend again even if I lived close by. Maybe others felt the same way too---they were just tired of the repetition.
I am sorry to see the show end though---I hope it is not a trend.
