Only show you should count on right now is a late January Vegas show spaced evenly between FUN and LB. Everything else still in the works as we look at new venues/cities.
I’m sure there is some type of cost-benefit analysis occurring. It is a company of a corporation. Don’t waste the bottom line.
Not really. A show like Philly we spend more on travel but less on venue, vice versa for Vegas. Ultimately our biggest concerns are where our customers want to be, weighed against the major show schedule and venue availability. We love the Bellagio and Palazzo, but typically there’s only a few weeks out of the year where they’ll agree to have a show of our size, and oftentimes those weeks are over top of or adjacent to major coin shows.
One idea I have, but wasn't sure to tell it to... @BrettPCGS (?)
Do a tour around the country. Go to different major cities around the country. San Antonio having been the first. The PCGS Members Only show is a premier show, unlike any other. I have been to Vegas and NOLA both one time. Technically, I'm not a PCGS Dealer. I really think I was the only 'collector member' at the show during its entire duration. The other thing is, not everyone has money to come to Vegas or NOLA. Something I noticed is how expensive decent hotels are in downtown LV & NOLA.
Another idea.. I can understand it being a security issue, but why not have a show at PCGS somehow? I'm sure you could find space either in your building, or on the strip. Would be great publicity, and I'm sure PCGS members/dealers would love to visit HQ.

I hope San Antonio is back on the list for 2020! @HeatherBoyd

I hope that there is one scheduled for Philadelphia. The last show, back in 2017 was great!

Comes down to venue costs, IMO.

One in So Cal or san Francisco would be fine too...
I give away money. I collect money.
I don’t love money . I do love the Lord God.
