<p>[QUOTE=&quot;V. Kurt Bellman, post: 2157350, member: 71723&quot;]Also where the costs of attendance are highest. Coincidence? I think not. By the way, don&#039;t tell anybody, but psssst, come closer, umm, shows are not an optimum place to buy coins. Thought you might want to know.</p><p><br /></p><p>I attend and work for the ANA at EVERY ANA show, but buy a coin on the bourse quite rarely, for the very reason you cite. I do always buy the World Mint Passport, but that makes me an idiot, right? After all, they&#039;re all moderns AND worthless world coins, right? <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie11" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> [side note: watch when these sell on eBay - they tend to do EXTREMELY well typically. Yet no traditional dealer will touch them. Food for thought about what &quot;one trick pony&quot; dealers believe.]</p><p><br /></p><p>Chip, you&#039;ve discovered one of the best things about ANA shows - the exhibits. Now find more. Money Talks. Sundman Lectures. Take a class to learn how to judge exhibits. Legacy Series Interviews. The banquet. Specialty club meetings. You can keep busy all day at an ANA show and never even hit a dealer&#039;s table.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
