<p>[QUOTE="red_spork, post: 2390616, member: 74282"]As someone who is a younger collector (24) myself, I'd add that a lot of the reason you don't see us at coin shows is that we like using the internet and at least in my case, a lot of coin shows are done during the week and I can't quite justify taking one or more days off for a coin show when there is so much to choose from online and I can look at it 24/7 with no pressure or time limits. I have the disposable income but as someone who has only been at the same job for a few years, what I don't have is a large number of vacation days.</p><p><br /></p><p>I actually do know several young collectors though, as well as several people my age who have said that they're interested after seeing a few that I've shared but don't have the money to buy coins they'd like. Who knows if they'll ever pursue the hobby in the future but there's certainly interest.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
