Much of antiques and art dealers' time is spent indoors. Many smaller antique shops and art galleries do not operate with a large staff, so dealers must be prepared to work alone at times. Also, there may be large gaps of time between customers. Most stores are open at least five days a week and operate during regular business hours, though some have extended shopping hours in the evening.
Dealers are not always stuck in their store, however. Buying trips and shopping expeditions give them opportunities to restock their inventory, not to mention explore different regions of the country or world. Spring is often the busiest time for building a store's merchandise, while the holiday season is a busy selling time.
