Not pertaining to this show in particular, but my guess is that a lot of dealers have inventory they paid up for, then some prices went down and they don't want to take a loss. I have fallen into that category before and it's not really a good one. I usually end up just biting the bullet, take the loss, and move on. You can't win on all of them!
