[QUOTE="mlov43, post: 8482458, member: 16729"]I never did get to see Chris B., but I did manage to swipe a wooden token from his table! But I did sell a huge load of books. More than I expected, for sure. There is something about showing the book, IN PERSON, to people so that they can flip through the book and see the quality of the binding, presentation, photos and read a section or caption or two... When dealers and the people at the auction businesses, "numismatic orgs" and the grading companies saw it in-person, about 8 out of 10 of them purchased it on the spot. I was really surprised... I also snagged a Korean coin collector or two walking past my table! Promoting this book is going to be hard. It seems I can do all the online promotion that I want (IG, Pinterest, YouTube, etc) but none of that gets book sold like in-person sales at big shows like this. I see now that I'm kinda screwed, in a way! I can't attend these shows too often. Anyway, it was a great show! [ATTACH=full]1501948[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
