How many dealers will be set up at ANA "Dealer Day" August 9?

I heard one guesstimate of 200, but that seems really high for an event not open to the general public. Does anyone here have a more solid number? Whatever the number, I'll be there at my table.

    Out of habit, I took a table too - (same table as my ANA Table during the week)

    But not happy the way the ANA 'cancelled'
    PNG Day cold-turkey.

    Very good question.

    I would assume there is as much pent up dealer demand as there is collector demand. So it would follow (in my non-professional reasoning) that attendance at such an event would be higher than usual. JMO Cheers, RickO

    I'll be set up for dealer day (Monday) at my show table No. 312. Please stop by, say hi, catch up, and be sure to check out all my Pretty Pennies!

    We took a table...but it was just so we'd get an extra day to set up our booth and the Hansen Museum for the rest of the week.

    I think all the things that might have been said about this messy situation have been said. Since my attendance will be social, not commercial, I have no need to pay $125 to hear my justifiably whiny brethren repeat them all again on Dealer Day. :#

    While sympathetic to all, I have no solution to the problems of but a few.
    For them, I can do no more than purchase some later evening's liquid consolation.
    The OP has noted that a buck twenty-five might get him some Johnny Walker Blue.
    A pity for him that I'm hoping to pass off some shoddy off-year Petrus as the real thing to confreres with a less exquisitely refined palate.
