[Iasin the Steward]

Thats a good start!

[Lord Reilloc Kram]

i hope that will be a good start for alot of the stores etc. i can get more pulled up but those ones listed are all at bristol, there is more at bristol, but not all have websites so i was working with what i had available if you know what i mean

[Iasin the Steward]

I am hoping to get more that are not at Bristol, I would hate to compete agaisnt the faire down there.

Thats just bad juju.

[Lord Reilloc Kram]

thats understandable but im sure that the sites all have similar stores or ones just like it, check out new yorks renny faire, texas's renny faire, california's 2 faires, florida's 2 faires, colorado's faire, lists of faires are easy to get, you want the link to them ill post it.

[Iasin the Steward]

Honeslty, I dont think it will matter. We set up a small something that will give credit to the other 'locations'

[Lord Reilloc Kram]

true true

[Lord Reilloc Kram]

[Iasin the Steward]

Its not just my thing, We do have two sites to make happen. Drop some more ideas if you have any.

Good work!

My Idea is that since this is going to be located in Salem why not try to get some of the local (and in the area) shops and people that wish to sell their stuff involved. That leads me to my question do you need to have a business license to sell stuff at the ren fair?

[jrichardson6769]

im not to familiar with oregon,( still learning the ins and outs of the land so to speak) but my understanding was that you needed a bus. lic. to do any business that involved the exchange of monies for goods or services. i guess another question is: could the fairs vendors run their bus. under the fairs site lic. ( knowing the site has to have some sort of a Business lic. anyways for the hotel/motel site ) and from there, maybe a break on the amount needed to work the fair where as if the vendor wanted to have a lic. for their booth/site( terms?) they would pay possibly a higher rate for being at the fair.
IE: a big business would be more inclined to pay for a temp lic. then a small vendor who may not be able to afford a temp lic.
which is why if it was legally allowed, the smaller vendors could utilize the sites lic.
just some thoughts James

[Lord Reilloc Kram]

the way i was planning on setting this up was that the local vendors would pay a fee to have their booth up on my land, after that 10% of their monthly profits after that. but since the faire would be up year round that isnt a whole lot. a small rent would be required for the booth on top of that per annual that they want to stay their. as per the license thing, well state cant say anything bout stuff that is sold off of private land.
