Stan Cass of Old Town Antique Market, Vancouver
"We are doing special events and are having an appraiser come in. We have been doing more sales. People are coming to look at good quality furniture. It's a good time to buy…people are selling their treasures."
Mel Olson of Koplan's Home Furnishings, Vancouver
"We're having clearance sales. We belong to a (storeowner's) group. At the next meeting, we're going to discuss what strategies stores our size need to take. We meet once every quarter and…share ideas on how to remain successful."
Joe Lanning of My Jeweler, Vancouver
"We take every day as it comes – there's not much more you can do. We are doing a lot more repairs than selling things out of the case. People are having things fixed and selling their broken jewelry."
