Message:: [QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 744372, member: 4552"]Again it may well be in some areas coin prices are not up or even down. But from my experiences in 2 to 4 coin shows a Month, all I see is increases. There is now one new coin show a Month in my area. Used to be 3, now 4/Month, every Month, even on Holidays. During December some of these are for 2 to 3 days due to the latest growth in coin sales and that is despite the increases I've noticed everwhere. At one show the amount of dealers has doubled. One dealer that goes to all of these and comes from another state tells me he is making more money now than ever in his 30 years of being a dealer. And his is the prices that are really now excessive. These shows are supposed to open at 9AM but by 8:30 they are already full of customers. At one flea market not long ago there was only a few coin dealers. Now there are as many as 20 at times. And even at flea markets the coin prices are getting really high. As I noted before if this coin collecting boom is slowing down, dropping, etc. I sure wish someone would tell the people around here. All I see is growth and more growth.[/QUOTE]
