Over the past few years we have found that exhibiting at various conventions helps us get in front of our target customers. We have found this extremely helpful in being able to put a human face with the The ID Shop. In 2006 we attended several national conventions such as the Defcon Annual the worlds largest hackers convention in Las Vegas, Hope in New York City, and PhreakNic in Nashville, TN.
Texas Gunshow
Convention, January 2007
TheIDShop setup our booth inside the Texas Gunshow to display our False Identification along with our Novelty Cards. The show was a big success with a lot of people taking interest in our products and information. Below are images of the convention.
We had order forms and equipment to make ID cards on the spot. We also used this convention as a chance to show off our new online ordering system which allows IDS customers to order their ID card online.
Past Defcon Conventions
The oldest and largest hackers convention in the world, Defcon. It is held every year in Las Vegas during the last week of July and is by far the biggest success each year. The ID Shop started attending as an vendor back in 1999 with Defcon 7. At every convention the The ID Shop sets up a fully operational booth that produces ID cards on-site. This last year at Defcon 13 The ID Shop had a huge turn out and was written up by many journalists. Below are some pictures from the convention:

This year we sent two representatives to the convention to promote our new line of PVC holographic ID's and to produce them on-site. One of the speakers at the convention John Q. Newman author of Credit Power , Identity Theft , The Heavy Duty New ID , and many other titles is one of the countries top information, and privacy experts. John Newman has rated The ID Shop in his speeches, " the best ID's I have ever seen. They are the best ID producers on the internet hands down." On both Saturday and Sunday when Mr. Newman spoke he packed the convention hall with over 3,000 people to hear his speak on identity theft. The convention was a huge success.
