Ok, I've read the thread and I've seen several posts about having some sort of private security hired to watch a dealer's inventory at all times. This was the first thing I thought of when I heard about the theft initially. Why would you go to a show with $2M worth of cards (in just ONE case) let alone all the other inventory you have at your table and not spend the money to have people behind your table whose sole purpose for being there is to watch your stuff?!
Sure, it would add to your show overhead, but the peace of mind would be worth it. And with that inventory, you could make one sale and pay for the security for the whole weekend from it.
I know Ash is a great guy and dealer and hope all works out for him, but I find myself torn between feeling bad about this and feeling upset that he didn't have this type of security at his table. Am I alone here or do any of you guys find yourselves in the same boat as me?
ETA: Of course, I feel bad about it, but I'm still upset security wasn't there.
