    I was at a show yesterday and noticed this one vender went out of
    her way to hide the tags. She had really fine expensive goods, you
    could tell even at arm's length. Her inventory was large, quite
    large. She also had quite a few customers waiting patiently to be
    served. 

    So now a day later I'm wondering the dynamic involved. Obviously
    this is working for her. Are the goods so tempting that people will
    stand in line? Is it some exclusivity appeal? Are her clients so well
    versed in the finer points of high end jewelry that seeing the price
    up front is not an issue? Does she purposely hide the tags to weed
    out the riffraff? 

    I would have liked to hang around longer and watch her closing pitch
    but it started to rain.
