I agree with you EXCEPT that I think craft malls are for many vendors, whether it be selling the same type of craft or different. Customers know upon entering a craft mall that there are booths from wall to wall containing different styles of pretty much the same thing. I don't know about flea markets...don't frequent them, but that's what craft malls are all about. Unfortunately, there are going to be "those" types of people mentioned by SueH that are very concerned about competion, and IMO, unless you make your products with dollar store vaseline, you don't have anything to worry about
