What makes Dealer's Choice distinct
Substantial by Brimfield standards — 425 dealers, 500ft of Route 20 frontage, wide aisles, and, per its own site, indoor washrooms, a real rarity among these fields. Sources disagree on what it's actually known for: one calls it strong on rustic furniture, another on men's vintage Americana fashion, a third on mid-century clothing, jewelry, and furniture broadly. Since these don't agree with each other, we'd treat any single "specialty" claim for this field skeptically.
It only runs Tuesday, 11am–5pm. One visitor account described prices as high and dealers as inflexible on negotiating — worth knowing as one data point, not a verdict.
Open days
Dealer's Choice runs Tuesday. It's one of the fields that doesn't run the full week — plan around its actual window rather than assuming it matches the rest of the show.
When to arrive
This is one of the latest-opening fields on the schedule — there's no benefit to rushing here early on its opening day. See the full field-by-field opening-time breakdown to plan a route across multiple fields.
