Adam,

As someone whose thought process I have usually found myself in agreement with, I do wonder if you will ultimately make the decision to not do shows. It feels as if the cons outweigh the pros. They certainly do for me, hence why I've been out of the show game forever.

What would be missed if you stopped? Obviously, the chance to buy/trade is the big thing. Making good, old fashioned face-to-face contacts would be #2. Doing bulkier deals which are easy in person but sometimes rendered moot when factoring in shipping cost have to be in there as well. Other than these positive factors, is there enough reason to sustain setting up? Do these good things happen with the needed amount of frequency? Your outlay and tension time are both tremendous in my mind. The dollar amount of product that has to be moved to pay for your trip is too much for me to fathom in this era where everything can be done from home if that's more preferable.
