Not really Joe, except maybe on the last day when they'd rather sell stuff discounted than have to pack it up again and move it.
Well there is the vendor area Tony that does sell items at a bit less than retail depending on what you're looking for Joe. Not really gear per say but cables, interconnects, music and such

Was thinking about going to the Florida show, but hotel rates too high. I can spend 3 nights axpona for $400 less than 2 nights in Florida. May go to axpona.
What's the temperature like in April?
