He said his sales were pretty good. I think I picked a bad weekend to do it but it's too expensive to risk it again! It cost me at least $700 just to be there (gas, hotel, show fee, etc). <BR/><BR/>AND I understand that it's an antique market/flea market mentality but I got so irritated at all of the people asking me for discounts. It's not like my jewelry is expensive, you know?freshie (and zero)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00926298683528552482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29051076.post-65541131303223260032008-07-01T09:47:00.000-05:002008-07-01T09:47:00.000-05:00Hey Beth...I did this same show in May, it was my ...Hey Beth...I did this same show in May, it was my first show and I did okay but it seemed like there weren't that many people who were actually buying (and there were a TON of jewelry sellers-especially in the Indie Chicago section)!! I'm doing it again in August but after hearing your report...I'm not so sure it's even worth it! I thought maybe I just had a bad day but it sounds like the show isn't really that great (maybe just for crafters-the anitiques people may be doing better). Sorry to hear you didn't do so well and the weather was crappy...at least in the afternoon both days! Are you doing Renegade Chicago this year?<BR/><BR/>Did you at least get to do something fun while you were here?JLC Studiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18184056622767298613noreply@blogger.com
