Dave, I haven't done anything yet as I was waiting for the required number of ANA names/numbers.

That was to waive the ANA yearly club membership fee of $75. They give a $5 credit for each one.

Gotcha. So the concept of "website as a club" is established with ANA? It's not exactly a stretch. But note my previous comments about club table limitations - 3 reps, and no competition with the bourse.

Well, maybe we can just suck it up and get a dealer table. I'll come up with a cool idea to come up with the money.

I'm thinking a step back into a clear-headed examination of what the actual goal is here. No doubt we could raise enough cash to get a bourse table, but then we'd have to figure out what to do with it.

I agree with Dave that the idea is to promote our hobby and getting to know our CCF members.
I have stumble upon this forum 2 years ago and enjoy the amount of wealth in knowledge each one of you have shared, these knowledge without it could have make me purchase questionable coins more often.
If each member that's attending this event will support monetary or time, or both that would be more cost effective to do this. I have one idea is to donate at least $50 worth of good coin(s) or new coin supplies that would help offset the table cost, contributors can have their business card* attached to their contributed item. (*if you have a numismatic business) If a collector, it will be label as a premium supporter to the CCF forum. Thought?

I agree, promotion of the CCF and our hobby, should take front seat to anything else. The idea of donating coins and/or supplies, is an intriguing one. As witnessed by the past, I can't see any member who has subscribed to this thread, as not wanting to contribute in some way.

Just stumbled on this.. I need to reserve vacation time pretty soon if I am to have any chance of making this "Get together" I like the idea of a sales table with forum members contributing to it. It will show the diversity of collectors we have. In info pack could be included with all sales to attract some new blood not that CCF needs to advertise as I am sure it has sucked in 90% of the general coin collecting fanatics by now..

It's eight months away, and that will come quick. Be great to have you there Richard! As mentioned, if we get a regular table, we can sell but a club table would not allow us to compete with dealers sales.
