Since next week is reading week and classes are off, I'm thinking of going to Torex this weekend. Is anyone else going?

No not at this show. Torex is just part of this buying trip.

Nope - Torex is a show I never will attend... as far as I am concerned (my own opinion), the Toronto Coin Expo is _the_ show in the self-proclaimed centre of the universe...

I'll be there tomorrow afternoon, since apparently a lot of dealers leave Sunday noon.

I will be there if I don't blow my already depleted wad on the current auction, hope to see some forum members walking around.
Feel free to call me Will.

The Coin World is a very small community and I for one try to stay out of the political part of it. I will be happy too attend Saturday and see some old faces and meet new ones.

I have no idea what politics is but I'm going to stay out of it, since a lot of assassinated people I read about are politicians.
I don't think I recognise anyone there. I'll be wearing a small red-and-white pin, so if anyone from the CCF sees me please say hi!

What a dismal waste of time and money that was today. If that is Canada's national coin show look out! Absolutely no public and very little to buy. Except for it being brutally cold I thought I was back at recent Vancouver shows. Some dealers were packed up and gone by three! What a sad state of affairs.

It is NOT Canada's national coin show... Coin Expo is....

Roger those are not my choice of words that is for sure. Good part is I met a few of your TO partners in crime and had a nice beer get together with okie and Bosox and more than a few others. Show how things have changed over the years though. When I used to come years ago it was pretty awesome. Today was just plain awful, however a part of that could be the let down after that incredible auction sale.
