<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 5862701, member: 19463&quot;]I thought the letter was well done and addresses the concerns/interests of the CNG target audience (which is not me).&nbsp; Covid has pretty much ended the hobby for me and it will not return until the Covid-bump is over and people with big money go back to travelling the world and buying fancy toys rather than collectibles.&nbsp; We just got the official notice that the Baltimore show in March was not happening but everyone knew that was the decision at least two cancelled shows ago.&nbsp; I don&#039;t know if I will be ready to become active again after the crash or not.&nbsp; About half of the coins I have had in the mail in the last year took unexpected side trips and one parcel is missing in action still.&nbsp; That takes the fun out of mail order.&nbsp; No coin shows, no safe mail and no local coin stores sent me off to spend my hobby money on other toys (taking bird pictures).&nbsp; I still enjoy most of the coins I have but wonder how many I will buy in 2021.&nbsp; I tore down my coin photo set up and plan on spending more time outside chasing nature.&nbsp; I do hope this is just a temporary blip in the hobby rather than a flatline.&nbsp; I hope some of the show dealers I knew are still in business when they start having shows again.&nbsp; CNG will be OK; the little guys???[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
