THANK YOU. I'm glad someone finally said it, these ladies have been on my nerves for years.
The prices are outrageous, everything is wrapped and new (As far as I can tell, every swap meet has rules that say "NO NEW MERCHANDISE" but somehow these girls get past that rule every single time. Not to mention they somehow get a swap meet table AND dealer hall space, which is also against the rules). They are also rude as hell. I've attempted to make serious offers on their merchandise (Once I attempted to haggle $5 less on a figure they're already selling for double the price it was worth), and they literally laughed in my face. I won't even step near their tables anymore. Importing direct from Japan is cheaper than buying from them. They've also come up to me trying to buy my merchandise, trying to haggle me down to 1/3 the price I was asking, when they won't accept any offers on their own stuff. Yeah, no.
Beware these girls. They break too many rules, and really ruin the fun of swap meets.
