Collects82 Pillar of the Community United States 1316 Posts	Posted 12/04/2015 2:25 pm I LOVE getting to the FUN show here in FL, it kinda meets my quota for the year in general. That being said, most of the local coin shops still treat me like I'm too young to have a clue or too poor to be worth their time for customer service except for one which rarely stocks stuff I care much about. So my motivation for shops is kinda low. The FUN show is another story. The thrill of the hunt never gets more exciting than in there! Report this Post to the Staff

the_sifu Valued Member Canada 276 Posts	Posted 12/07/2015 5:11 pm I like to hunt flea markets and antique shows also. There is a monthly coin bourse I try to go to once a month on every 2nd Sunday, except it is not on in the summer. Report this Post to the Staff
sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 12/07/2015 5:30 pm I used to visit a coin shop daily for more than 30 years. I used to work in the middle of the business district of Sydney. The coin shop was 3 minutes walk from where I worked. I have since retired but I still maintain a good contact on a frequent basis with with one of the staff members, who still works there. Our frienship goes back more than 40 years. He bought a Roman gold aureus out of my first collection, which I sold way back in 1976. He still has it in his own collection. Edited by sel_69l 12/07/2015 6:29 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Libertad Pillar of the Community Canada 3692 Posts	Posted 01/02/2016 3:22 pm I try but it rarely happens, which is good because any kind of work is good work during this crappy recession. I got some time off this year so I dropped into my LCS for a long overdue purchase. Owner was quite happy. :) Report this Post to the Staff
