New vendors are not guaranteed admission. New vendors who misrepresent their offerings will not be booked again. Counterfeit merchandise is forbidden.  

We try to give antique dealers priority.  If you are selling craft objects that you make, please call to discuss. This is not a juried show but we do try to minimize duplication. The markets are currently over-supplied in jewelry, pillows, bags & totes, scarves, and hats. Glass, ceramics, and art objects are always welcome.

Absolutely NO jewelry -- costume, vintage costume, or handmade -- may be sold by new vendors. We also need to limit sunglasses, hats, scarves, rugs, hair accessories, handbags, shawls, pillows, tee-shirts, or beaded items sold by new vendors. Ethnic handicrafts are also another problem area at this time. We must know exactly what you're selling to keep the market at a gently competitive level. Call or email to discuss.

Vendors must notify the market if they want to make a change in their merchandise. Vendors who do not get approval on merchandise changes may not be allowed to sell the merchandise at the market.

THE OFFICIAL Bad weather policy

What does it take to make the day ‘a bad weather day’?

This is really the heart of the matter. Remember that we are talking about weather in the neighborhood of the market – not the vendor’s neighborhood. Bad weather for outdoor vendors consists of:

·         Precipitation in the form of rain or snow – it must be at least ¼ inch of rain or 2 inches of snow. And this must be before 1 PM.

·         Extreme cold – temperature below 35° F (during the entire day)

·         Extreme heat – temperature above 90° F (during the entire day)

Indoor vendors should be prepared to work in most weather conditions with the exception of heavy rain or snow. If you aren’t, please notify us before Friday noon.

 What are the options for a vendor if the forecast calls for bad weather?

There seems to be some confusion about what your options are on bad weather days. It is actually straightforward:

·         Not willing to take any chances?? Please cancel by Friday at noon. No questions asked. No penalty for doing so. (You could then try to re-book on Sunday morning if the weather turned out to be decent.) 

OR: Would you consider a space inside? You may call 212-239-3025 to request a space indoors. Just leave us a message.

·         Want to wait until the last minute?? You may cancel for bad weather on the morning of the market by leaving a message at 212-239-3025. If you guess wrong and cancel when it is not a bad weather day or if you just don’t show up at all, you will be charged one-half the rent.

·         If you come to market and SET UP, you are obligated to pay the rent even if you don’t work the whole day. NO EXCEPTIONS TO THIS. So stay outside the gates if you want to wait and see.

·         If you park in the yard, you will have to pay the rent for your vending space as well. We are not a parking garage. 

Remember we are talking about the actual weather experienced on the day of the market – not the forecast. The forecast is right about 30% of the time.

We are trying to make this as fair as possible for all concerned. When the weather is truly bad, vendors who have called to cancel are not charged. If this was a street fair operation, you would be paying the entire rent (sometimes months in advance) whether it was storming or sunny. Here you pay as you go.
