A Dealers room is a space provided where merchants offer wares, (loosely) related to the subject matter of the convention. This may be in one or more rooms to which all members have easy access. The room itself should be easily secured when it is not open to the public. The dealers will want easy access for themselves for setup and tear down of their individual and collective displays.

This room / department is often called the hucksters room. Some dealers, especially those with perhaps less historical perspective on fandom, seem to find that term demeaning, which may explain its declining use (why annoy people over a triviality?).
