    Is it not true that when you send in your application along with
    your slides you can specify if you are applying for wholesale only,
    retail only or both? There are of course only a certain number of
    spaces available for all slots, a lot of people get wait listed but
    a lot of people get in because others declined. 

    Most friends of mine want to do both wholesale and retail days. They
    first do the Rosen show which is wholesale of course, then travel to
    Baltimore do that wholesale show and hey why not make the retail
    money and sell directly to customers to try and unload
    inventory....then there are a few I know who only do retail and want
    no part of the wholesale business. 

    It is definitely a crap shoot who gets in and why. I have known
    artists who have done the show for 15 years and all of a sudden
    their work is not good enough? 

    I have talked with numerous buyers at the Rosen show and most agree
    that they like that show better. They know that their artists are
    going to be there year after year and in the same spot none of this
    year to year based on a jurying process that seems to be fixed most
    of the time. 

    Oh well, just my observations. 

Laurie
