Yeah, sarah and I vended last con (jewelry & my dad's wood work) and it was very light sales -- enough to make it worth our while because we were going to be at the con anyway and it helped to cover the hotel room cost, but definitely not enough to support someone coming for the weekend just to sell. We had a blast, and most of my participation at this con is "hang out in the con suite, talk to awesome people" anyway so we just did that at the table, but the con's only about 150-200 people and there just isn't the audience to make it worthwhile for people who need to cover costs and make a profit.
It's definitely a fun con to just come and chill at, though -- it's my favorite relaxacon.
