It went great! We sold all of the playgyms and cages we brought. I had three cages we sold very cheap that were sitting in the basement not being used and in very good condition. Cages are a bit hit there.....ours sold in ten minutes after the expo started! Also quite a few toys sold as well, which is not bad considering everyone there was selling toys! My parrot charms did not sell well. They are cute too and were only two bucks, I was sure they'd be a hit! but that's ok, I'll put them away until next year when we'll probably do it again! I think we were the only vendors there that it was our first time doing it! Also I got meet some of my forum friends, Laura and another woman from another forum went and an online friend Lin who is a foster mom to rescue birds! It was a good day....weather wasn't great, but wasn't too bad either. (snowed when we got home! :omg:) We loaded up the car full of stuff and came home most of it gone which is good!
Also, I fell in love with a little DNA'd boy lovie on the tables next to us! He was a peachface, yellow with a reddish orange face. He had that spunk in his eye like Pip has! but my boyfriend wasn't going along with bringing him home so Pip didn't get his friend yet :( BUT.....those people are having another bird fair in June and the little lovie boy never sold......so maybe they'll sell him again in June?? I'm going to find out their email and see if I can't get in touch and maybe we'll get that boy in June! That way too I can prepare more and have a cage and everything ready for him too and gives me time to convince the boyfriend to say yes!!! :nyah: I sure hope that I end up getting him.....there was just something about him....I had a gut feeling and those feelings are usually right!....you know...that it would work out perfect and him and Pip would get along great. Maybe one day we'll get the chance to see if I am right! and if I'm not, we can always make due....one more cage in the living room! :omg:
