Is a dealers table worth it?

My roommate and I will be attending FWA 2013 and we plan on getting a dealers table together but....is my art good enough to sell? In all honestly, is it?
I've tried taking art commissions in the past and never had any real luck, hell it's even hard for me to give away my art via requests. So i'm wondering if i'd be able to make back the $80 i'd be spending on the space by selling art, mainly badges.
Believe me, I genuinely love drawing for others more than myself, and would love love LOVE the chance to actually take badge commissions, and I know I shouldn't charge professional price; i'd probably charge $5-$10 for a full colored badge. Or is that too expensive? ;;
Sigh. I guess i'm just asking, for me personally......do you think I can get customers?

if you think about it getting your 80 dollars back wouldnt be that hard if youd charge 5-10 per badge
you just need 8-16 commissions
It doesn't really matter if you don't get a lot online. At cons are really where people get a lot of badges, and its in person, and people are kinda there for the purpose of spending their money.
And you definitely have a style and its cleanly done, its great and I definitely think people will buy it and you should easily make back the money you spend.
I guess i'll go for it then c:
Yeah, maybe for a pro's art. My art is lame art ;3;
