<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 4271773, member: 19463"]Am I the only one bothered by the situation that faces those who consigned coins to sales that will have a reduced audience of participants? It will be interesting to see if the situation cuts down on the number of bidders or if so many people have free time to bid and don't mind not getting winnings for several months. </p><p><br /></p><p>I can see how one could run a sale with employees working from home but when will employees be able to access the vaults and put hundreds of coins in envelopes? We all hope this all blows over in a few weeks. It won't. How many sales will you participate in not knowing when the coins will be mailed. How long will you have to wait to be paid for coins you consigned several months ago? No matter, they can't return them to you either. My hobby revolved around coin shows. That is no longer happening. Is mail order better now? As I read it, one person operations from home are still viable but the super sales from the big guys are not. Am I wrong?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
