Permalink Reply by Cheryl Lamon on February 9, 2012 at 10:41am I did this show 2 years ago and was very disappointed. There is no many buy/sell people there and it seemed the crowd was more interested in the inexpensive things. I had a good spot too just a few doors down from the cheesecake on a stick. I will not do it again but maybe you would do better.

It's an insane load in and out situation! The buyers come there for PVC marshmellow guns and any other $5.00 item. I finally left on Sat. after the show ended for the day and after paying the booth fee, renting a cabin (45 minute drive) nearby, paying 2 helpers, gas and food I only lost $800.00 on the deal.
I will never do it again. I also don't know any other ARTISTS who do the show anymore. All of the stories I've heard about the artists making big money at that show are from the 1990's.
