They don't even cut it, they make a little nick with the sissors and then rip the cloth. Geez was I ticked off. The darn piece of velvet cost $13.89. Add to that a couple gallons of gas expense.

[QUOTE="Victor, post: 415746, member: 5454"]I've been wanting to get a piece of velvet fabric for my "coin show type" display case. I have been putting it off since the fabric store is a 45 mile round trip. Well next weekend is my annual coin sell off at a yard sale at my daughter's house. Last year I sold $354 worth of coins but one was a $205 CC Morgan. Anyway today I drove to the store and picked out a nice dark blue velvet cloth. I wanted it custom cut so that's the reason I went there. Well they can only cut on the inch marks, no half inch cuts. And they can only cut it one way so I have to cut it the other way. They don't even cut it, they make a little nick with the sissors and then rip the cloth. Geez was I ticked off. The darn piece of velvet cost $13.89. Add to that a couple gallons of gas expense. I was sort of fuming the whole way home about another wrong decision. Then I pulled out my change and there was a 1935 Mercury dime! Maybe a kind of message to just shut up and be happy. No I'm not driving back another 45 miles to ask see what else is in the cash register drawer. And yes the dark blue velvet does look good in the aluminum display case.[/QUOTE]
