A friend of mine and I went to the Puyallup Fair Grounds (in Washington) for a stamping show. The "event" happened at a booth for Judith's Stamps. We were given a small catalog of some sort and a plastic shoe box to put the items that we wanted to purchase. We were approached 3 times on our way through the booth. One remark was "that is the stance of someone not buying anything. We kind of laughed it off and continued through the area. We have been going to these shows for a few years and always leave with many new and exciting items. In fact last year we both bought several stamps at this very booth. We like to walk through and look and if anything catches our eye we make note of it. Then we like to walk though again. Well on our first pass though the booth when we came to the end with our shoe boxes empty we were approached again. This time the woman took both shoe boxes and told us to make room for people who wanted to spend money. I was shocked, my friend tried to think she must be joking with us, and then realized she was dead serious. The most interesting part of this story is the person who did these things and said these things to us was none other than JUDITH herself. You can bet we will not be looking in her booth again. I don't care if she was having a bad day or not. There is no excuse for this kind of behavior.
