most of you are familiar with this term.
- the good: spent the last 3 days - tomorrow will be 4 - revamping, regrouping, and reconstructing my spots at country roads. okay, the reconstructing part was bryce. matt and bryce were a major part of redo. (i am still kinda gimpy.)
- the bad: just the second part of the phrase. nothing bad at all.
- ah, the ugly: need to vent. most dealers spend huge amounts of time planning, primping, preening, plumping, and placing goods just so. we fret over decorating and display. we do all this for you - the customer. hours, sometimes days, are invested in an effort to bring you the best shopping experience possible. smelling, touching, unfolding and examining our goods is what we want you to do. but, please, consider the next customer. everyone should get the same experience as the first one on the scene. don't shake out all the linen and throw it on the floor. return an item to it's original spot instead of the furthest corner of the booth or worst yet, another dealer's area. why must lamps be taken apart? why are items drug out and then left blocking access? why should all the customers that follow you wonder what the hell the dealer had in mind with his/her booth in such a shambles?? we have all visited antique stores where our skin crawls and hand washing is a must. we have all been turned off by the topsy-turvy, helter-skelter, mish-mash stash of stuff. we must all lend a hand to make our favorite antique stores stay a cut above.
"that's all folks!"
