[QUOTE="Paddy54, post: 2641969, member: 19250"]Here I choose smaller shows 20 to 30 tables over the larger shows. Yes I love the bigger shows as already posted more inventory to look at. However the larger shows a dealer may have $500 -1000 a table . So until the dealer recouped his over head most likely they aren't going to deal. Try smaller shows....and also try to net work in to the dealers who set up. Regular customers who return again and again are always appreciated by dealers. Also smaller shows their table fee's are $100 or less. That said the dealer has more wiggle room on a coin. Next is body language study the dealers posture , are they friendly out going? Or do they just sit at a table and offer no conversation or that your presence exist . Lastly offer a fair price no need to make offers that insults their inventory or their knowledge . Good luck.....and don't let one bad experience taint others that can be rewarding.[/QUOTE]
