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.

>The fact that the bathroom is right there--i do not need to find someone to >watch my booth if i need to go to the bathroom.

Please tell me you've still got someone watching your stuff while
you're in the bathroom. After all I didn't see any bathrooms in the
Westin where you could see outside of the bathroom wall.

oh absolutely. But i can look out the hallway, if i happen to be alone, find someone I know and trust and ask them to watch while I run in the bathroom, compared to how long it might take if I were in the dealer's room..it's much less of a bother for someone to watch while I'm still right there than going off somewhere....

At worst, a dealer can close the door for a minute.
