[QUOTE="Burton Strauss III, post: 2992930, member: 59677"]Why are you surprised (that the primary financial viability of a show comes from dealers)? If you held a show and no dealers showed up, you wouldn't be able to pay for the room. And it wouldn't be successful for the public. If you held a show and only dealers showed up, you would be able to pay for the room. And it would be successful for at least a large portion of the dealers. Sure there is a lot of symbiosis... some dealers are wholesale only... and some dealers are almost exclusively retail sales... but most are both. Same thing as the best shows are those with both dealers and the public.[/QUOTE]
