[QUOTE="physics-fan3.14, post: 2937739, member: 19165"]Glad you had a good time! I wouldn't expect to find many ancients at a small local show like this. While ancients are popular and widely collected around the globe, there isn't much market for them at a small show like this. Out of curiosity, what was your goal in purchasing these pieces? Did they contribute to a set you're building? Did you buy them because they looked cool? Did you buy them because you thought they were a good price? Or was there some other motivation for these purchases? It seems like a lot of random purchases, but I'm wondering if there was some purpose. My point in these questions: there is an allure at a show - I see it, it looks cool, I have to buy it. I have succumbed to this many times myself. I've found, after going to many shows, that when I go with a goal (some concrete idea of a set I'm building, or looking for a very specific item), my shows are more successful.
