Frequently asked questions about Furry Weekend Atlanta’s Dealers Den.
A dealer wronged me, didn’t deliver, etc. Can Furry Weekend Atlanta help?
Generally speaking, Furry Weekend Atlanta is not a party to agreements made between dealers and attendees. We really prefer not to be involved in disputes and suggest that you try your absolute best to work out your disagreement with a dealer directly. Our involvement in disputes is generally limited to providing (limited) contact information.
What about taxes?
It is your responsibility to collect and file the appropriate tax paperwork and payment to the state of Georgia. We’ve arranged with the Georgia Department of Revenue to use a special Miscellaneous form, same as our dealers, to report sales tax that does NOT require artisans to have tax IDs. The form, Georgia Form FS-32 is exceptionally simple and should take less than 5 minutes at the end of the day to complete. Assistance will be available for those who need it. Artisans must, however, track their own sales. The tax rate is 8%.
Can I play music or a video at my table?
Yes, as long as no complaints are lodged. If asked by the staff to turn it down, please do so. If not, it will be removed.
Can I have display racks or small tables that sit on the floor next to my table?
Because of space limitations, there are only a few positions in the Dealers Den that this is allowed. Please advise us when you sign up for a table that you will want one of those spaces. If you don’t receive one of those spaces, these display items may be asked to be removed by the Dealers Den staff if they pose a safety hazard or clog a walkway.
I don’t have the money right now. Can you hold me a table and I’ll pay on date x?
We’re sorry but we cannot. Payment is due when reserving your table.
I want to share my table with someone. Is that okay?
Only single tables may be split between Dealers, and both Dealers must be approved through the application process.
I need some extra space for displays, wall space or to sit by another dealer. Is that possible?
When you register for your table, there will be space for you to make these requests. Please note that requests are filled in a first come, first served basis as much as possible.
Where is my table located?
Because we don’t assign tables “on the fly” – we wait to make sure we can satisfy all the requests – we can’t give you a precise location of your table until one week before the convention.
Is wireless internet available in the Dealers Den?
Yes. Furry Weekend Atlanta is working to provide wifi to Dealers Den. As always, we are not and cannot be held responsible for access or speed of the internet. There will be a charge for internet of $20 per day for 2019 – you’ll be able to sign up while connecting at the con. See the Dealers Den Policies page for more details.
