[QUOTE="geekpryde, post: 1965548, member: 36248"]Great write up Tom. That mad-house atmosphere is very bad for security and could easily have gotten out of hand. From what I have read elsewhere (Gerry Fortin), there were a ton of people that were line-holders and should not have been at a coin convention at all. Clogging up the isles with non-coin people who were hired-guns seems like a good way to have some nice coins go "missing". I hope some good comes from this disaster, and that is they DONT do these kinds of releases in this fashion again. Seems like all the dealers I trust and respect thinks this was amateur hour for the ANA. Someone should be held accountable, but they are too busy being sued probably to deal with accountability. Good news about some NEWPS for the email list and your site.[/QUOTE]
