I'm staying overnight with a friend to wait at NBC after the SNL premiere, then doing the flea market the next day! Can't wait.
Does anyone know how the Times Square area is going to work? Are all of the tables still going to be in the Alley, and the auction stage will be in Times Square?

Not sure exactly how it will all work, but there will be nothing in Shubert Alley this year because of the construction on the surrounding buildings. That's why they're "extending into Times Square" this year.

Posted: 9/14/11 at 9:25amHow exactly does the autograph table work? What if you want to get something signed by most of the people within a certain hour...but don't really care for the others who are signed up for that time slot?

If there's someone sitting at the table that you don't want you just walk past them. They're all sitting at one long table (or they have been in past years) so the only way to skip someone is to walk right past them.
This is why I like the photo booth better. I feel weird about walking past people like that but I also don't want to feel obligated to get the autograph of someone I don't know.
The photo booth is going on at the same time as the autograph table. The people at the table are pulled away one or two at a time to pose in the photo booth. Another reason I skip the autograph table. A person you really want could be in the photo booth when it's your turn at the table.
As stated before the table is $25 for the whole table (two autographs per celeb) and the photo booth is $10 per picture unless you offer more. The people running the photo booth will ask the people waiting in line who they want their picture with. The people with the most requests will be brought over from the table. If someone only has one or two requests they won't bring them over. If someone really want only has one or two requests there are creative ways around this.
For example:
Last year only two people requested Matt Hydzik for the photo booth so they weren't going to bring him over. It was me and a man and I told him I was willing to offer $20 if he was. He agreed and we both got our pictures.
Two years ago Beth Leavel only had one request so she wasn't going to be brought to the booth. So, I offered $40 for Beth and Danny Burstein together. I got my picture.

That's exactly what I was wondering. Thanks!

Posted: 9/14/11 at 2:26pmSo last night my mom broke one of my window card frames, is triton gallery the only booth that sells frames at the flea market? (and are there any to get relatively cheaply?)
#58Flea Market 2011 Thread
Posted: 9/14/11 at 2:33pmYou might be able to find some randomly at different tables. I know 2 years ago one table had a couple that they were selling for $2, but it was probably just stuff they were trying to get rid of. Triton I think was $25, if I'm not mistaken. But, they are very helpful with framing for you.

Posted: 9/14/11 at 2:35pmEspecially if you wait until later in the day, some booths sell old, used frames for cheap. Sometimes they will sell posters in old frames. My friend bought four old, scratched frames last year for $1 each, touched them up with a black Sharpie, and they looked good as new.

Posted: 9/14/11 at 2:38pmSeriously if you see cheap black frames that are scratched, a sharpie makes them look brand new in no time!

The 11am autograph table lineup has been posted. Someone was asking about Sutton Foster, she will be at that one. Other names have been added to other time slots as well.

It looks like the first slot will be my most expensive since I'll be asking for three different pairings.
Adam & Sutton = $40
Colin & Joel = $40
Tony & Nick = $40

Posted: 9/14/11 at 3:18pmThey still haven't announced any "half hour" people like they did last year for Cheno and Sean Hayes (though Cheno was a PB no show) and the year before for John Stamos. There's still hope.

Posted: 9/14/11 at 3:20pmI also wonder if they'll get Daniel Radcliffe for a half hour in the photo booth.

Posted: 9/14/11 at 3:22pmI thought of that but I have to think there's pretty much no way they could do that in half an hour

Posted: 9/14/11 at 3:26pmThat hadn't even crossed my mind, but it probably would be impossible.

Posted: 9/14/11 at 3:39pmI will be a first timer, and i was wondering if there is a possibility that there will be long lines for the celebrities and it's possible the time slot will end before it is my turn?

Posted: 9/14/11 at 3:44pmRelax, that table list isn't complete. Usually the tables have held twenty guests.

They do their best to make sure everyone gets what they paid for.
