<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vess1, post: 1296317, member: 13650&quot;]You&#039;re probably right.&nbsp;&nbsp; I agree that there&#039;s just too many shows.&nbsp; I love going to shows, I am not unemployed and can occasionally splurge on coins.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; This year I went to the ANA worlds fair over in Rosemont since it was so close.&nbsp; This was such a large event that it was not easy to gauge whether it was packed or not.&nbsp; The place was huge.&nbsp;&nbsp; Over two days, I pretty much blew most of this year&#039;s budget there and then some.&nbsp;&nbsp; There was a local show (50 miles away) that I normally go to every year that I skipped this year because I went to the ANA show and since I ordered five 25th anniv. ASE sets from the mint.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; All in all, there&#039;s got to be a lot of people who skip their local shows after the major ones come through.&nbsp; Or even after major mint releases.&nbsp; With this economy, anybody who&#039;s lucky enough to be able to buy any coins is doing better than a lot of people.&nbsp;&nbsp; It&#039;s difficult to go to more than a couple shows a year for me.</p><p>&nbsp; I won&#039;t go just to look.&nbsp; That would feel like wasting my time and gas.&nbsp;&nbsp; I&#039;m either adding to the collection or staying home.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;I&#039;m sure the dealers here can give a decent assessment.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
