merchants are masochistsfabricdragonMay 25 2009, 18:33:47 UTC
is this news? at the end of every event i think a few of us merchants have commented on how nuts we are to do this....and that is even after a GOOD event.
i figure it must be a bit like childbirth, you dont really remember it properly or you wouldnt repeat it
definitely read the link to jewelry display ideas.. and when i post pictures take a look, because as i have merchanted i have decided that there are many display options that are "great looking" but are not worth the extra hours of set up......
I just loved wearing that corset the other day. But now I'm torn because if I have that I won't feel like exercising at all. ^_^ I still want to get one though. ^_^ Do you know what anime cons you are going to in the future? If I asked for a certain color could you bring it with you? Will they be 250 at all the cons?
well i am TRYING to get into more Anime cons, but THAT was my first... i may be going to "another anime con" and i will be trying to get into more.. if there is one you think i should apply to, PLEASE tell me about it!
they are going to be at the old prices as long as i can, but sadly.. prices keep going up. i do usually give my best possible prices to my friends though, so ask me quietly..
i probably did....fabricdragonMay 26 2009, 00:53:39 UTC
cackle! thats like the time someone was "looking for her friend" i should post that story..... (in fact i will post it tomorrow) but it amounted to "he's overweight, wears glasses, suspenders, has a beard.." at a SF con she didnt seem to understand why all of us security/merchants and etc were laughing and going "and?" she actually seemed to think that was seriously identifiable...until we pointed at a group of 6 of them (including my hubby) and asked.. "like them?"
i probably did see her. but yes, i saw a lot of girls with roughly that description. tell her i was the merchant in the back wall with the corsets next to the wig dealer.

It does amuse me when people don't "get" that they are not such unique snowflakes in a con. I will ask her when I get a chance to talk to her about it.
