I spoke to multiple dealers on Friday. The reason their cases were empty at 3 pm on Friday was because repackers came in and bought entire show cases out at 95%. I don't blame dealers for selling at 95%.
This bears the question of will this be the case at the national. I fear if you don't have a dealer badge to get in Wednesday morning or Tuesday, most worth while deals will be gone before the general public can see them, at least for modern. I'm very nervous the repacking racket will creep in to vintage and pre war.
