I want to go to the Long Beach coin show to see some vendors, particularly Angel Dee’s and Great Collections, I was wondering if they will still be there Saturday morning? From people who have been to coin shows, is it still worth it to go Saturday morning (the last day?)
Thank you for your help!

All multi-day shows are less populated on the last day. Anyway, you should contact Angel Dee’s and Great Collections directly to find out if they'll be there. Not sure why you would ask anyone else.

I was asking ‘anyone else’ because I wanted to get a sense from the coin community if it’s worth it for me to make the 1 1/2 hour drive to go there, even if Angel Dee’s and GC is there.
Seriously, why doesn’t anyone post anything anywhere? If you don’t feel you can add anything to a discussion, just move on to the next one.
@MrEureka did add to the discussion, by suggesting that you check directly with the dealers you asked about to see if they will be there. That might be a different consideration from whether it would be worth your while to attend, regardless.

I have attended major shows on the last day and enjoyed myself. Often half of the tables or more are empty or unattended, but that still leaves a lot of tables/coins to peruse. Try to get there early if you can, it starts looking even more sparse later in the day.
A lot of dealers seem to leave early on Saturday, but there will still be a good amount in the morning. We agree with comments from TheMayor; get there as early as you can. Angel Dee’s will still be here.
In the future, please feel free to email us to ask us about our plans. Thanks.

As Mark wrote, if you want to see specific dealers, contact them directly and ask. Otherwise, I would say 'no.' I left Long Beach at 3:30 this afternoon. Many dealers had already left and I doubt they'll be returning tomorrow, especially if they're from out of the area.

@Davidcoins... Be sure to write a show report.... including 'last day dealer attendance' details. Cheers, RickO
David - You said "I want to go to the Long Beach coin show to see some vendors, particularly Angel Dee’s and Great Collections, I was wondering if they will still be there Saturday morning?"
The question mark indicated to me that it was a question and that you were looking for an answer. Anyway, I'm over it.
