I hover. That's the main thing I do. I hover just inside another person's space. It usually works.<br /><br />I have come across people who take it one step too far and grab. Had that happen at an estate sale when I was looking at a large box of post cards. I was happily going through the box when suddenly a woman stepped up and grabbed over 1/3 of the cards, her arm nearly hitting my nose. I stood there stunned for a few moments before deciding that if she was going to play that game I was going to one-up her. So I grabbed the remaining cards from the box and stacked them on a table. When she came back I looked her in the eye and said, pointing to the stack, "I've gone through those and I'm keeping them." Of course I did't buy all of them, but I got rid of her.<br /><br />Hovering is the least offensive method I've found.Tattered and Losthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00208918251232477186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654707306721822289.post-20257482192341190572011-01-20T06:07:40.799-11:002011-01-20T06:07:40.799-11:00Very interesting backdrop..I have never seen one l...Very interesting backdrop..I have never seen one like it before either.<br /><br />Good job on getting the album..I hope I never encounter you in a sale..:)Far Side of Fiftyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07995757632158408442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654707306721822289.post-52402630423027164512011-01-11T14:29:13.219-11:002011-01-11T14:29:13.219-11:00Bizarre?

I'm thinking it must have been a photo booth in Coney Island or similar amusement park that would have over-the-top stuff like this. Very strange, that is to say, it's great.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11954692169914973706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654707306721822289.post-10348574962679349802011-01-09T02:01:18.064-11:002011-01-09T02:01:18.064-11:00Haha, what a great find!
