First Coin Show In Years.

Ya, I don't know if I can justify the time and expense to go cross country but who knows... Is ccf going to have a table at the fall long beach shpw? If not when and where is the closet to socal they'll be at?

Raw coins are becoming rarer at my local shows. There are still plenty of raw coins, but the slabs are everywhere now.

BUT no lost in mail, no postage, no handling, no no returns, no insurances, no paypal expenses, no ebay expenses. So many people seam to forget those little things.
IF you can find a lot of coin shows, remember to try to talk to as many dealers as possible. Try to think of ways for them to remember you. This only works at coin shows where the same dealers appear. At those large shows it makes little difference what you say or do since those dealers will probably never see you again. At shows I go to I get to know the dealers and they look for coins I need or want. And I get super good prices due to just being friendly with them.
