Mary*’s display is the biggest, and seems to be one of the most successful, because she's learned how to let the in-demand products come to her. "I never go to stores to see what's hot. I just listen when people ask for things, and then I order it," she says, while adjusting a stack of Too Faced eyeshadow palettes. She says that she orders her products from an undisclosed website in China, and tells us that sometimes the packages get seized, but most get through customs just fine — and the raids in Santee Alley are so rare that it’s worth the risk for her to sell right out in the open.
