National: Cash or debit?

[packs]

My experience at the National was I didn't need either because there was nothing to buy, only table top museums you could visit.

That’s funny.

As others have said...Cash is king! When I used to go to nationals. I made up a budget and brought the equivalent in cash...but one time I did find something that I wasn't expecting to find at a price that I couldn't refuse...but I only had about 1/2 in cash. Luckily, the dealer knew me from previous transactions over mail, so he graciously accepted my check. I told him he could even ship it to me after the convention until it cleared, but he sold it to me on the spot.

That has been my experience the last few times I have gone. But I went ahead and went to the bank yesterday just in case this time is different!! You have to be prepared to strike and hundreds will do the trick when the time is right.
