    << <i>Kudos for Rich Uhrich for staying at his post for the entire show.

    Other dealers take note! If you can get into the habit of staying for the posted hours of the shows you attend, you may find that people will start coming back in larger numbers. If I was a dealer and I shelled out good money I would want to stay to the end. I would not want to take the chance and miss out on the one sale which might make or break the show. >>



    That would be great if that actually happened on a frequent basis. With very few exceptions that huge Saturday deal never happens and most likely you're spending all weekend entertaining the hordes of tirekickers or the families looking for a few state quarters.

    Most dealers who leave before the weekend are there for doing business with other dealers only. They do not deal or interact with the public and even if they were forced to be at their tables on Saturday their presence wouldn't matter to the general public because they wouldn't be talking to or acknowledging them.

    Why would you not want to miss out on a sale that would BREAK the show??

    << <i>It sucked. I walked through the whole bourse in about 3 hours. >>



    How many hours did you want it to take? >>


    I was hoping to kill 4-6 hours on the bourse. >>



    I wish I would have had your spare time as there's a good amount of dealers I never had a chance to see image >>



    I wish I had what I will presume is your rough income.

    To give you an idea of how much spare time I have, today I spent about 6 hours roll-searching and looking for ikes. It's not as nice as you'd think. I'd rather work 60 hours a week and make double what I make now.
