I hadn't been to a show in a LONG time. Man - all the kids walking about with those black briefcases holding slabs, and I saw one haggling with a dealer, looking at his phone to cite recent sales of whatever modern card he was looking for. VERY different vibe.
Thanks for posting about the show in the first place. Take care!

What you saw is what is going on in the modern card world.
In DFW, with the exceptions of the shows Kyle Robertson and his teams put on (and my small 20 table synagogue show twice a year) I tell people these people speak a hobby language I'm not familiar with. Yes there are tons of people at the DCS who speak that new language but there are enough left who speak the card language I understand.
Regards
Rich
