<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Arizona Jack, post: 562089, member: 9308&quot;]I set up again today in Glendale AZ, the &quot; Northwest Valley Coin and Card Show &quot;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The 1st time I did this show is was deadsville, I sold less than $50 total. Today was way different. It was busy for a rush period.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This is a brand new show and is gaining public every show. I don;t care for the sportscards and memorabelia but thats what it is, a coin/card show.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Mike, the shows promoter is really working to make this a viable show on the AZ circut, coffee and donughts in the morning and a paid Pizza lunch for the dealers. He also advertises heavily and puts some effort into this, kudos Mike !!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>We did a respectable amount of sales today, maybe $400 in total ( table fee was only $45 ) but the over the table purchases made up for it. I now have 47 new BU Lincoln wheat`rolls and some nicer large cents in midgrade problem free condition. Many collectors had the checklists out, and like BHP&#039;s report, Lincolns were a steady seller, if even the low priced dates and lower grades, they are still buying.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I cannot count how many times I was asked if I had gold or silver bullion ( I had none ).</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>As AZ heats up and the winter visitors return home to the north and the midwest, we expect a long slow summer, with only the hardcore AZ collectors out in force. It&#039;s a cycle.....winter busy/ summer dead here in AZ. Get used to it.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I have re-upped for the next Glendale show and will now take a corner table which will allow me (2) 8 footers instead of one, I can now stock supplies and page binders/looseleaf stocked with generics. It&#039;s a slow crawl up , but more fun than workin, thats for sure.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
