Saturday I setup for selling at my first coin show...

Yes, I made expenses and table fees and possibly minimum wage also, lol. I did not have any offers to sell to me, but I did make some trades. Next time I will have a sign stating that I want to buy. Of course I knew it wasn't going to be easy. To me there were two benefits. The primary is I sold stuff I didn't want and second I made my hobby profitable, although a few hours overtime at work would have paid more. I buy most of my coins from craigslist and as such I buy the entire collection. I offer based on a few that I know have value and then look at the rest of it as free. I sold $376 in ASE for $23.50 each, $50 in ASE at $25 each, one 1764 French coin for $65 and lots of misc small stuff.
