Cigar Pen display with 1 cigar pen left!
There’s only three days to go, and I am running on empty!
Just this week so far, including Thursday (yesterday), we sold over 130 pens, and I am starting to run out of them! Since we are literally IN Grand Central Station, which is known to be one of the busiest places on Earth, the customers come in waves while they try and catch their trains. At one point Thursday afternoon, in the 5:00 hour, 20 pens were sold. That works out to someone buying a pen every 3 minutes! I still have a few high end watch pieces left, but they will not last until Sunday. All my Cigar pens are gone. I started with 85 of them. Look at the photo to the left, there is only 1 cigar pen in there, before that got sold later in the day. Only a few of my Abalone and Pheasant Feather pens are left, and I know they will not last till Sunday! Looks like I will be bringing home empty pen cases, which is never a bad thing.
After packing everything up, and driving home, I plan on getting some sleep – maybe a lot of sleep. After I get a chance to slow down and look at the whole experience, I’ll post some final thoughts about this marathon craft show.
PS – Since this post has been sitting here for a couple of hours, someone just bought 2 of my high-end coin pens.
Happy Turning,
