Hi all..
I didn't do the show, but have heard alot of surprising things from people who
did.
It seems the GLM Gift Show and ACC were mixed all in one hall. I had a friend
who
sells fiber complain about the strange mixture and how buyers were asking if
her
prices were for a dozen??? BUT....she and many others had great shows as far
as
sales go, so who knows what's going to happen there. It will probably be a
good show someday if it builds with quality work and not so much low end.

We attended the ACC show and Gift Show as buyers and although it seemed a
bit strange at first having both shows in one hall, we quickly got used to
it. Furthermore, having the ACC there seemed to upgrade the whole event,
while having the gift show there didn't (at least for me) downgrade the
ACC--tho I did notice prices seemed a bit lower than the last time I
attended an ACC show a few years ago. Are crafters finally getting a bit
more realistic about wholesale prices?
