Some vendors at the straw market are very aggressive. Normally that
does not bother me but since the market has narrow and long aisles it
is hard to move away from them. I got out of there after a few minutes
as I could not stand it. That is at the temp. market they put up after
the fire. It wasn't that bad at the old market. When I am at Nassau I
always go to the John Bull store. It is fun to look around and the
sales people were pretty good. I tried on a few Rolexes there last May
for the heck of it, and the the salesperson was low key, helpful and
not pressuring.
