The Fear of Selling Jewelry Out of a Dark Gray Suitcase

My father used to blow glass in California sell plated jewelry from a dark gray suitcase have regrets what about that made him uncomfortable. It sort of perplexed me that that was the detail that really upset him and I think maybe for him the idea that he is selling it out of the suitcase says something about like a business integrity or an ethics rather than my taking liberties That's that's not the fear I think the fear is rooted in being presented as  a shady or distrustful character in business right right?
