    I like Charmy's reports in their entirety!
    Keep them coming Charmy! They are awesome and it's like being able to attend when I can't!

    Holy crap!

  • ashelandasheland Posts: 23,189 ✭✭✭✭✭

    She can post them as she sees fit. They are HER threads after all!

  • ashelandasheland Posts: 23,189 ✭✭✭✭✭

    There are no problems with her threads, if there was, it would have been addressed long ago.
    I've done shows in the past and indeed we all go to restaurants afterwards. I enjoy all of those aspects of her reports. A LOT of us do!

    Always enjoy your reports Charmy, and appreciate you sharing the "Fun"!

    The guy had it coming and was likely expecting the inevitable. We won't see him/her for a while, though they can "observe" like Kilroy....

    I always enjoy your threads Charmy as well as seeing your new Conder tokens and exhibits. Thanks for taking the time to share your experiences with us!

    Great report as always. I usually enjoy these more than the shows themselves. :smile: Thanks Charmy!

    It looks like I received an answer to the question posed in my now deleted thread.

    Don't change a thing! Thanks for taking the time and effort to put out a great report. Lot's of us can't make it to these shows, especially when there way across the country.

    Cheers!

    Fantastic!

    Ms. Harker has always been a classy lady, and I always enjoy her input. I met her several years ago at the Dallas ANA Money show, and she was and is a sweet person, and very knowledgeable. I'm not at all surprised that Crazy got booted. There is never a need to be rude or pushy like that.

    All the nonsense posted by a now "former" Forum member aside ;) , your show reports are one of the PCGS Forum's highlights for me. I don't get to many shows these days but actively read each of your reports and view the pics and I feel as if I was in attendance as well. Also, thanks to your inspiration, a couple of years ago I began an exonumia collection of penny teapots and charms too. Mine is considerably more meager than yours and only number a couple of dozen but I love them! In short, never change a thing to suit your critics. Run your race as you see fit and ignore the noise. Well done Charmy, you are indeed THE PENNY LADY! ;)

    Here's my penny's worth (or is it cent's worth?)...
    I was reading the posts made by C4C and wondering...
    If C4C is indeed a woman and knows there are not many women in the industry that own or co-own numismatic businesses, then why is she trashing another woman on these boards? C4C did not comment on other people's posts about the FUN show that mentioned things other than coins, so it's interesting she focused on Charmy. Maybe she has an issue with other women... If she didn't like the posts, then she shouldn't read them! Hopefully, she will see that PCGS must not have agreed with her since they banned her. I'm glad she's banned but I'm sure she will be back.

    For those of you that chimed in supporting Charmy: Thanks for posting your support. It's nice to see that these days!
    Charmy: Do not let this person influence you. If you were doing anything wrong, PCGS would certainly let you know.

    When I first joined this forum and came across my first "Charmy" post, I found it a little odd someone would be posting photos of their food, wine and socializing after hours. But then I started going to some coins shows, seeing these same people, even walking past Charmy's table and saying "hello." Although I'm not much of a numistmatist, I am a small time collector. I browse this forum daily. It's almost like I'm part of the gang, although I haven't met very many of the folks in the photos. Charmy , thank you for this type of posting you do. I can't attend many conventions unless they are in the Chicago area, so your postings are the next best thing. I find they kind of tell a story with the ending of " there's no place like home." Thank you for letting me get a glimpse into your life. And thank you to all the others that post here as well.

    C4C made a power play to become this forum's moderator. PCGS is still the moderator and that is good news for the rest of us.

    Great report, Charmy. Although I've read your reports regularly with interest, I've rarely commented on them... mainly because because they have always been a model of consistency - about major show activities, the folks involved, as well as all the background & nuances that frame the shows from start to finish. I've grown to expect them, and always appreciated the "life" your reports have given the shows you attended. Don't allow the trifling some petty troll pitches your way... please keep providing the informative inside intel you've always given us.

    Well crafted report . . .and a well crafted response to the situation. You are well above any singular attempt to garner attention from any individual. The reports, pix, and interactions you have at all the shows many of us will never attend are invaluable as you know.

    I treasured our meeting in Vegas . . . .and the kind attention you gave me. I still value the two coins I bought . . .
