I don't think I'm physically capable of entering a coin show or even a coin shop and leave without buying something. It's certainly not something I've ever done.

Especially if I had to pay to get in. I'd feel like I didn't get my money's worth if I didn't spend any money there.

Of course, when I say it like that, it doesn't really make sense.
Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis

I did that once, but only because the prices were so over inflated.

I would have to buy something to satisfy the need.

Turtle,

Why didn't you buy anything?

Was it that lame of a show?

I got used to that a long time ago. With 4 coin shows a Month within 15 miles, I go to so many that it is sort of like window shopping in a large city. You get to know if you don't buy something today, there is always tomorrow.

I also would have a really hard time walking into a show and not buying anything. If prices were inflated, HAGGLE BABY!! I'd probably have to pick up some junk silver around spot just to get my fix!
