You should have stopped at my table, I had $5.00 boxes and $10.00 boxes and my prices were more than fair and I always negotiate if there is room to do so. I don’t think vendors bid up prices at the auction to much if they planned to resell ? But I don’t know ? The screen for the back could have had an arrow with a statement stating more around the corner but also not sure there wasn’t something like that ? Don’t get discouraged to much, I had to learn how to navigate the show myself and learn what’s for me and find dealers I like and who has what I like. Some I like but prices on some I really like can be high in price, but I have expensive taste, but not all. I still look for Cubans at a bargain and other states.
Take care and hope you did have a good time despite prices.
