[QUOTE="ToughCOINS, post: 3864958, member: 20480"]Obviously, I go to shows not only to sell, but to buy as well. It is not the norm for me to go with a long list of specific coins I seek. I usually go with a short handwritten list of customer wants, and a very long mental list of coins always to consider, should I run into them. sometimes I am completely blindsided by a coin that I tell myself I shouldn’t waste my time looking for, and then, Bam . . . it smacks me right between the eyes. Other times I’m drawn in by a coin with a very unusual attribute. It is these kinds of surprises that really make my shows . . . Not profit wise, but emotionally. They really raise my spirits. If I’d give one piece of advice to those who go with a very definite target in mind, it is to prepare to avoid potential disappointment by having a couple of additional candidates in mind that will deliver nearly as much satisfaction as the primary target would.[/QUOTE]
