Message:: [QUOTE="Arizona Jack, post: 359728, member: 9308"]Went to the show this morning at 9, same usual crowd. I see alot of the same folks at the coin club shows and meetings. Best thing about the Scottsdale show, it's in an Elks club and they have a kitchen. I always get a big homecooked style breakfast and load up first thing, 2 eggs, hashbrowns, bacon , sausage and toast with coffee. Then on to the hunt..... I only picked up 4 coins today, an XF 31-S, a F/VF 09-S, a super nice AU-BN 16-S, and a VF 13-S that I "cherry picked" in an old folder still marked with 2005 pricing, yee haw.  The days of the dealers only having a few slabs are turning into the days of the dealers with nothing but slabs......One fellow had nothing but NNC and PCI slabs, ouch. Signed up to have my own table from now on, it's $45 for a good aisle table in the main room ( they have 2 rooms), 2nd Sunday of the month, ever month. So now, the next purchases will be 3 allstate cases and some lighting..... Step by step, wean from Ebay, crawl before you walk you know?[/QUOTE]
