My old friend Carlos and I will be roaming around, it's a nice place to be on Saturday morning.

I've set up at this show in the past and it's usually a pretty good one.....not too big.....not too small.......just right.

Kewl - I'll be there Saturday morning!

TheNumish · March 27, 2003 2:35AM

I'll have a table there. Looking forward to it. Setting up next to the infamous Win Carner.

You can laugh at me but please don't laugh at my coins. Thank you very much. They are very sensitive.

<< <i>pssssttt.....the password is 'Joe Dirt'..... >>

this is the kind of humor I enjoy

that is the password.

ANACONDA · March 27, 2003 2:50AM

What time on Friday can people get in? (I think I'm not setting up.)

JoyofCollecting · March 27, 2003 2:54AM

I'll be there on Friday afternoon. I think the Grapevine shows are pretty nice actually. It's always a pleasure to get to spend some time with Dick Osburn at those shows. So, I know how to find JBSteven and the Numish...but how will I know how to find GSAGUY?

I'll use the secret password "Joe Dirt." Anyone bringing any nice seated dimes they're wanting to unload?

I look forward to meeting some other forum members!!

TheNumish · March 27, 2003 2:55AM

Dealers with tables get in at 9:00
Early Bird Dealers pay $25 and get in at 10:00
I think the public is 1:00

TheNumish · March 27, 2003 2:57AM

Finding GSA guy is easy.

Just listen and follow all the "Ohhhhhhhhhhhhssss" and "Ahhhhsssssss." That's GSA guy showing off all of his beautifully toned Morgans.

jbsteven · March 27, 2003 3:00AM

joy:

the secret password is when you find me. Have you seen the movie? if so you will understand the password when you see me.

i will be arriving around 10-11 am as I am driving from Houston Friday morning.

JoyofCollecting · March 27, 2003 3:05AM

JB:

Sorry....my kids are five and nine....so since the movie wasn't animated...I didn't get to see it. Oh well, I'll find you and I look forward to meeting you.

Take care.

KenzoT · March 27, 2003 4:15AM

The hours for the show listed in Coin World are Fri....2-6, Sat.....9-6, and Sunday......9-3.
They let Carlos and me in early on a Friday once, but I suspect that was because they knew they could at least catch Carlos if we did anything bad.

hookedoncoins · March 27, 2003 4:57AM

I think I might drop in either Sat or Sun. I haven't gone to a coin show for quite a while.

keithdagen · March 27, 2003 6:23AM

Too much to do at work on Friday to make it, but I should be there for a lot of Saturday afternoon. Will be bringing some toned commems to see if I can unload.

I've shaved the goatee since the last show and managed to lose a little weight. Attached pic was taken about two weeks ago. If you see me and I don't recognize you, please say hi.

hookedoncoins · March 27, 2003 7:04AM

If I see you there, I promise I'll say hi this time.

-Jarrett Roberts

keithdagen · March 27, 2003 7:06AM

No problemo. I was hoping that somebody would post about their experience on being there this afternoon.

hookedoncoins · March 29, 2003 6:25AM

I just got back from the show. Talked to numerous dealers, and met a few board members while I was there. I also picked up some nice coins

. There were quite a number of people there. Well, now i'm off to work (to pay for the days expenses).
