		<description>hmmm...that&#039;s a good question.  i think it is used more broadly now to mean smallish craft show, often in a store, but here is the wikipedia def:

&quot;A &quot;trunk show&quot; is a special sale in which vendors present merchandise directly to store personnel or select customers at a retail location or another unique venue. In many cases it allows store personnel to preview and/or purchase merchandise before it is made available to the public. It is particularly desirable to have the actual designer present at the event. Most small businesses do this to get more buys.&quot;</description>

		<description>Excuse my ignorance, but what is a trunk show? Is it different from a regular craft show or sale? Thanks</description>
