A Woolf Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 Has anyone received their 2022 Flea Market Renewal requests from Hershey Region? It seems like in the last few years they have arrived earlier in December. Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wowabunga Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 (edited) Ouch just opened my vendor envelope today.... at $90 a space I'm thinking it's time to throw in the towel. I live 40 minutes from Carlisle but they keep jacking the space fees and admission fees so I said goodbye to Carlisle 10 years ago. How much does HERCO now charge for parking...? A shopper said it was $20 a car last year...? Was told the Greenfield icecream man didn't come in 2021 because HERCO jacked up the fees on them. The shoppers were sad to see his absence. I go to the local one day Saturday swaps as a vendor and make a profit every time.... packed aisles and parking lots. The prewar show in Luray VA was beautiful and affordable. Lost money at Hershey as a vendor in 2021. Since my income has been halved in real life I guess I was expecting too much thinking space pricing would hold steady. Walked away from eBay 2 years ago something about they keep jacking up the fees... Edited January 29, 2022 by Wowabunga (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Bond Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 If you're "pinching pennies" to have a week of fun, just raise your prices a notch to cover your expenses. I don't worry about it. It's still the biggest vacation bargain going. See you at Luray. Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My great grandparents told me first hand stories of struggle living thru the Great Depression... the biggest lesson was to invest those pennies wisely. When we get to Luray I'll tell you a few stories that may shake you in the knees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't a good time at all. Somehow I think today's youth missed out on a lot of that "training." Luray certainly has been a great event and a breath of fresh air in the world. It's a real old-fashioned small, laid-back friendly swap meet like we used to enjoy. Very much looking forward to it. Don't forget to bring some old spark plugs for my collection.
