[QUOTE="WingedLiberty, post: 1204734, member: 26030"][B]kanderus[/B], your coin show sounds a lot more managable! good question about the stocking of coins -- i have wondered the same thing myself.[B] 1066merlin[/B], funny you were there! who knows I might have bumped into you. yes going on a weekday afternoon is better than a weekend I would think. So many tables that you could always find one that was void of onlookers. a notebook is a good idea. I think in the future I might take quick photos of more expensive coins I like, get the price and the bus card of the owner. Then I could peruse the photos and ponder the prices at my leisure at home and decide. Less pressure that way for sure and allows you to A-B stuff from different dealers easier. Of course you may lose a few that way, but probably prevents those expensive spur-of-the-moment "regret" purchases. And lets not forget shipping costs if you buy it remotely.
