LOL! I had the dealer next to me try to shove my table down so he could wheel his cart behind his table. Yup...it happened and I embarrassed the crap out of myself! I let rip what the F do you think you are doing. You could here a pin drop after that! Took longer to sort the jumbled mess than it did for me to set up. Luckily it didn't break any of my cases.

What happened? Did the table collapse? The one gentleman looks like he’s zipping up a body bag.
Ha, I like the body bag. I believe that is a coin case bag or whatever they are called. During the day they hang down around the table and under the cases. Then when time to leave for the night they just fold up the 'bag' and zip it up and lock it. This versus putting the plastic / cloth over the top of the cases.
Of course it is not fully secured until the chairs go on top. See right edge of photo.

Yeah, I watched the same thing happen across the aisle from where I was sitting once.

The problem wasn't with the table, it was just too many off-center coins that were put in one corner of the case on the table. :'(

I can describe that in Croatian, but if I did, I'd probably get banned.

I thought that was a hospital at first glance. Hope nothing broke.
I collect world proof sets, coins featuring composers, mid-20th century U.S. proof coins, U.S. type coins, and whatever else I want.
Maybe it was one of those Hollywood stunt tables? Glad no one was injured. Any damaged shekels? Peace Roy

Oh the shock and dismay....
Sure hope nothing was ruined....Looks like it was more of a near disaster, than a full fledged disaster. Cheers, RickO

Maybe he put all the gold on one side of the table.
I knew that would happen! Just to many gold bars!

SOMEBODY during setup didn't quite get the locking legs locked on that table.
Wonder how many more are just waiting...

This thread made me laugh ….. Nice light convo on Saturday ☺️
all new rock bottom prices.
I would get a new table…the leg anchors don’t look too good!
What show was this?
I thought initially that was a body bag.
Looks like a body bag for the dealer who didn't realize how much gold had fallen in price and just bought a bag of double eagles.
