Shopping the Show.

The main Extravaganza field opens at 10 AM on Thursday. If
you are coming on Thursday you may want to arrive early. The
Indoor Antiques Market opens at 8 AM. The permanent
merchants always bring in special merchandise for the
Extravaganzas. At 10 Am the field opens and all exhibitors may
begin selling. The buyers will rush in followed by trucks and cars
of exhibitors to the non reserved spaces. Many of the dealers are
meeting customers for whom they have made special purchases.
Unlike internet selling customers will get to touch and closely
examine merchandise they are interested in purchasing. Although
customers have been in mind for certain merchandise dealers will
sell to anyone. You are encourage to ask questions and learn
about the merchandise. Most antiques dealers have a passion for
what they are selling. Although you may see many people rushing
about from dealer to dealer you may consider taking your time.
So much is missed in the rush. If you are looking for specifics, by
all means ask. Most exhibitors have merchandise in many other
locations and can not carry all their items with them. Also many
may have different merchandise for different shows. And don't
underestimate the vast network of antique dealers. They are not
opposed to referring you to someone else. The hours for Friday
and Saturday are 8 AM to 5 PM both days. Don't worry about
missing everything by not shopping Thursday, many dealers don't
even put some of their items out till Friday. Saturday morning
usually starts with an addition of 100 to 200 new exhibitors,
replacing some that have moved on. Each day is a different and
unique experience.

Dress for all weather. The show runs rain or shine. Pack a bag
so you can shed or put clothing on. And above all, wear
comfortable shoes. You will be doing a lot of walking.
