Which part of you don't need to have something physically on your body to keep an eye on it aren't you understanding? You don't just leave over half a million dollars in coins in a hotel room unattended.
I can tell you as a fact that business people do this ALL the time. You are just being suborn now and I am ending my participation in the back and forth. Coin dealers are little more than traveling salesmen and when big shows are in Chicago and NYC, Los Vegas and Atalanta, etc etc, and not just coins, it is COMMON for this to happen. You can't be on your merchandise 24/7. At some point you have to put it down and do something else.
That's true, and then when they get ripped off you hear them whining about how they never thought it would happen to them.
