In the past, I have gotten hand crafted items from various countries at the UN gift store but haven%26#39;t checked there for several years.

There used to be a great place called Back from Guatemala on 6th street but its gone. There is a store on East 3rd that has mainly Mexican crafts but does have some of those woven zippered Guatemalan purses. And, there is a store called something Phoenix on 3rd or Lex uptown that has mainly stuff from Mexico, but she has some stuff from Guatemala and Central America - not sure about South America. Very pricey compared with the source, but they dont pay Manhattan rents in Oaxaca.

and, Goodtimebob.com may have a link to his Guatemalan store on ebay - he%26#39;s out there politically, but spends a lot of time in Guatemala and his prices are OK.

There are usually one or 2 Peruvian vendors at the better street fairs. Not the ones with the finger puppets and embroidered shirts - this is more of that white/brownish-black smoke pottery and those Inca chess sets you see all over Peru.
