Myself and the other person were given a lecture about how vendors spend money to rent out tables and we would be asked to leave if we were "buying/selling". I certainly wasn't intentionally trying to break any rules. If you know me you know that's just not my personality, I was bothered by the "talking to" I received as I honestly didn't know what I didn't know.

So please take that under advisement.

IMO if a vendor at his booth doesn’t have what I want, at a price I think is a fair price, and be isn’t willing to dicker, I will look elsewhere… and if it happens to appear in a parking lot, or walking the shooting course, I will strike a deal wherever the opportunity presents itself.
I will not obviously break any rules and will conduct a deal very discreetly… as I have done twice in the past.
