Dealers Row

[longhairedsffan.livejournal.com]

I was reading the post below about Dealers Row.  

Could someone explain to me why a dealer would
want to use  Dealers Row instead of the Dealers Room?

My main objection to dealers row is the accessibility issue.
My wife uses a scooter to get around which makes dealers
row impossible for her.   So she never got
to use it at the Hyatt or at the Westin.

I have to wonder how much business these dealers loose
by going with deelers row instead of the dealers room.

That may have been people expecting you to be open. I noticed
a number of signs indicating dealers were open late, so they
may have expected all dealers on dealers row to be open late.

It may have also been horseplay, I noticed that the 16th floor attracted that
like a magnet.

That may be true but this is one con goer who after so many years of
the deaalers row at the Hyatt follows no specific dealer so I have
to rely on browsing.

More than likely she had a very difficult time unless she had
someone with her to help with objects blocking the way.
