[NJARC] Swap Meet Protocols

[Martin Minnicino]

I know that this subject has been broached before, and that it is quite 
controversial, but I did not like personally witnessing vendors/members 
"reselling" items at last Sunday's swap meet in Hazlet!

I saw one vendor buy a radio from another vendor, jack-up the price, 
and then put it on his table for sale.

Yes, yes, I know, we all deserve to make a buck, free enterprise..., 
etc.  But I just found the whole experience to be disturbing from the 
standpoint of "more business, less interest".   I also did not like the 
idea of seeing many of the bargains gone by the advertised start time 
of 8:30 AM.

Feedback that I have gotten from both members and non-members about the 
Hazlet Swap Meet has been mostly negative.  The usual advise is "just 
save your money and time for Kutztown".  I wonder why ?
