Dealers at the national

[olrac44]

I don't think the promoters can be responsible for how a dealer conducts himself/herself and how they handle the inventory at their table.

How does a dealer lose a 52 Mantle, anyway? If it's in a showcase, the showcase should be locked. If the dealer shows someone the card, why would they take their eyes off of that card?

Probably someone opened the case while he was distracted. Dealers' cases should always be locked.

I heard of a scam a couple years ago at the National used to steal entire binder/sets. The thief is carrying around what appears to be large count box of cards, with a false bottom and nothing inside. At some point the thief places the box down over a binder/set of cards. When they pick it back up the box has the binder in it and off they go. I like bait table idea...

Perhaps Leon or someone else knows.....Does the National offer Safe Rentals to dealers? I thought many of the dealers who had safes had a similar company's label on their safes.
