<p>[QUOTE=&quot;borgovan, post: 551405, member: 13016&quot;]Hi, all. For those of you who are in the Detroit area, I&#039;ll be setting up at the Northwest Detroit Coin Club spring show, this Sunday (March 29th) from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. :high5:&nbsp; This is the club to which I belong. I&#039;ll have either a sign on the table that says &quot;Big B Coins&quot;, or I&#039;ll have some business cards out with my name and website on them.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I&#039;ve visited many coin shows as a collector, and many shows as a vest-pocket dealer, but I&#039;ve never actually set up a table. I wanted to give it a shot. I went and purchased some neat showcases from a fellow who makes them, bought coin display trays, and priced out some slabs and 2x2s, and I&#039;m ready to go! I&#039;m not going to be too hard on myself if I don&#039;t sell a lot, because I&#039;ve heard many dealers say that business has been slow lately. On the other hand, I think my prices are pretty good, and I have a decent selection. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>My biggest fear is thieves, but I have my best coins in the showcases, so I think I&#039;m pretty set there. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>My second-biggest fear is being assigned a table next to a dealer that I already don&#039;t like, or one that smells (trust me...it&#039;s an issue for a couple of the regular dealers), or a jerk. There aren&#039;t too many jerks, but there are a couple of dealers with whom I won&#039;t do business for one reason or another, and I&#039;d be bummed to be next to them. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I&#039;ll post a report shortly after my experience and let you know how it went. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Wish me luck, and if you&#039;re in the area, come say hi![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
