From experience, domestic you can take as much cash as you want to on a plane.

Just hope D.B. Cooper is not on the plane.

I wish it come to ATL.
I don't get out a ton and probably never get to a show.
But if one did come here, I'll make sure to go.
It would be neat to meet & shoot the breeze with some of the nice people on this board.

Couple of notes:

1) I seriously doubt the National will ever get back to Atlanta. it was held there in 1992 during the hobby boom and the show was not great for that time period. Then it was held again in 1999 and was terribly slow. We're not going back to Atlanta for a long, long time unless they basically RENT FOR VERY MINIMAL COST the convention center to the national promoters. If they do that, then we got a shot to be there. Remember Atlanta in the summer is hot and humid and generally icky.

2) Most ATM's by the National run out of cash each year. Whatever you plan to bring -- if you can afford to bring double that amount, then do so.

I did some simple math, subtracting my son's birth year, 1976, from 1992. I remembering taking him when he was 14. I didn't realize it was a national.
I remember telling him we should buy a '52 Mantle. The price we saw there was $5000. At the time I wasn't aware how improtant condition is.
