Precautions

  1. Travelling with other dealers increases safety. Prepare your travel plans this way

  3. Try not to leave the show area with your merchandise. We rent heavily armed safe deposit boxes for this reason.
  4. Always be alert, get plenty of rest before shows.
  5. After the show, plan dinners and outings with other friends or dealers. Robberies occur most often when dealers are alone.
