Its really not an expensive show - if you need to get a hotel, the con is right in the downtown core which is also the hotel district (easy to find a good hotel for $100/night or there's a good hostel down by Pike Place Market for like $30/night for single travelers). If you're flying in, there's the light rail straight into downtown from the airport for like $2.50. Being downtown, everything is within walking distance and the public buses are free in the core. And there's a Fedex Office in the lobby of the convention center, I save overhead by only printing like 15-20 of each print to start with, and then I put some of the early sales back into printing more if I'm running low on any (takes 1-3 hours to get stuff printed). It not only keeps my start-up costs low, but then I don't risk being stuck with dozens of prints that have to make the trip home without being damaged. And the artist alley table cost isn't bad - its the most affordable show I do. But it fills up fast.
