<p>[QUOTE=&quot;numist, post: 25229242, member: 35&quot;]Back in the late 1970&#039;s I sprung for a brand new Allstate display case.&nbsp; It was a lot of money for me back then along with coin trays and other show related expenses.&nbsp; Nice to have to set up at local and regional shows for sure.&nbsp; Years later I sold the case as I didn&#039;t have space or need for it.</p><p>I&#039;ve kicked myself for that decision ever since.&nbsp; I&#039;ve done a few setups here and there over the years but used a couple of wood and plexiglass cases I built instead of buying another Allstate.</p><p>This past weekend while perusing FB marketplace I spied a case identical to the one I had.&nbsp; It was obviously used, the lock no longer had a key and someone apparently spilled a drink on it along the way.&nbsp; The price was still incredible and it was only an hour away.</p><p>I got it today, cleaned it up and put in a new lock.&nbsp; The glass is clean, the seals renewed and the aluminum brushed and shiny.&nbsp; Basically a new case ready to roll for future shows and such!</p><p>I know I&#039;m probably way more excited about this than I should be but I guess it harkens back to a simpler, fun time in my life. Just having that case now makes me feel more complete if nothing else.</p><p>There&#039;s always deals out there if you just look.&nbsp; Sometimes they come with extra benefits.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
