DEALERS! DEALERS! DEALER! vbg

COME ONE, COME ALL, # 25 IS AROUND THE CORNER! vbg vbg vbg rofl rofl rofl grin grin grin

HELLO TO ALL! Summer has gone by quickly and our Greatest Show on Earth (a/k/a the ccgtcc 25th Annual Convention) seems like it was just yesterday! But, it really IS time to start thinking about our 2017 Annual Convention! This year will be our Club’s 25th Annual Convention -- our celebration of a QUARTER CENTURY of club Conventions -- of members convening to celebrate our hobby and our individual fascination with all things related to GAMING HISTORY, casinos, card rooms (legal and illegal) and gaming paraphernalia and exumenia!

This is a major milestone -- 25 years of Annual Conventions is AWESOME! For those who may not know, our Club officially started in 1988 (five years earlier than our1st Convention in 1993) with an organizational meeting as part of the American Numismatic Association (ANA)’s Convention. Little did those first Convention Planners (Archie Black and Michael Knapp) realize what they would start! Or, maybe they did!

The ccgtcc 25th Annual Convention will be June 22-24, 2017 at the South Point Hotel and Casino. THIS YEAR, we will be moving from the Ballroom area to exhibit hall D in the Exhibit Hall Area
(on the same level as the South Point’s Arena and Pavilion). You are going to love the new space – it has Restrooms and a Concession Stand in the room!

Dealer Set-up begins at 9:00 a.m. on Wednesday, June 21st and the Exhibit Floor opens to the public on Thursday, June 22nd through Saturday, june 24th. show hours are still to be determined and we will keep you informed!

We are very pleased to announce that our Club President, Doug Smith, and the Board of Directors have agreed to offer last year’s reduced table fees again for 2017! Single tables will be $275 and corner tables will be $475. For our returning Dealers’ information, IF you take the same number of tables you took in 2016, your fee will remain exactly the same in 2017!

Because of our new space in Exhibit Hall D, we need to change our floor layout this year and this will result in more corner tables becoming available. So, for those who have wanted a corner table – now is your chance!

We have attached the Dealer contract for this year and respectfully request that you return it to us at your earliest convenience but no later than January 31, 2017. We will be sending out explicit directions to Exhibit Hall D and Parking Access to our Dealers along with confirmation of our receipt of your Dealer’s fee.

Once again, we will provide Dealers an opportunity to pick up your packets at the back door of Exhibit Hall D OR at the Box Office across from the Exhibit Halls. There is space on the contract to note where you will pick up your packet.

Many things have changed through the years but not our members’ interests in getting together and sharing our enthusiasm, knowledge and wares! We could not have a Convention without Dealers – YOU! If you know of anyone who may want to be a Dealer, please let us know!

We look forward to this coming year when our membership convenes to make all things “old,” “new” again! And, we encourage you to be part of our Club’s 25th Annual Convention!

Please reserve a dealer table(s) for my use at the 2017 Casino Chip & Gaming Token Collectors Club, Inc. ( ccgtcc ) Convention. I understand that the dealer tables are offered by invitation only to ccgtcc members in good standing.

A CORNER table will include two (2) eight foot tables with one (1) back-up table space, dealer sign, chairs on each side of both tables and three (3) dealer badges.

CONTRACT PROVISIONS

• The dealer table assigned to each member cannot be sold, rented, loaned, or leased by any other individual during the convention without the approval of the Convention Chairs.

• Although the South Point Hotel does not offer electrical service to the individual dealer tables, they have an arrangement with an electrical contractor to do all of the convention power supply. Information will be in the future dealer packet. You will need to contact the vendor directly if you need electrical service. Please plan accordingly.

• Dealers are allowed to sell ONLY CASINO-RELATED COLLECTIBLE MATERIALS or COINS.

• NON-GENUINE items are expressly prohibited, unless such articles are clearly marked as "reproductions," "copies," "fakes," “repaired,” or "fantasy" items.

• It is understood that the ccgtcc does not provide insurance against any damage or loss suffered by fire, theft, accident or personal injury and the signor of this contract further agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the*cc* its officers, agents, volunteers and participants against any and all such claims by the signor and on behalf of any and all co-workers, helpers, assistants, and anyone else with a dealer badge from the signor’s table or working behind the dealer’s table.

• Table priority for the 2017 Convention will be given to previous table holders in good standing, and then to new applicants based on date received. If, in the future, the space available is insufficient to meet table demand, table priority will be determined as follows: First priority goes to table holders from the previous Convention and then to past table holders from prior conventions.

• All dealers are required to keep their table(s) open and wares displayed for the FULL HOURS OF THE SHOW. There will be no early breaking down of table space. Any dealer who violates this provision may be banned from future Conventions or face other sanctions.

• If a prior year dealer does not submit an application by the deadline (with a postmark date of no later than January 31, 2017), the dealer will not have priority based on points, but will get priority based on date of submission after the deadline, along with all other “after the deadline” submissions. This means that a prior year dealer will not be assigned as good of a location as if the prior year dealer had submitted the application within the allowed deadline.

• The Convention Chairs reserve the right to expel any dealer or individual who conducts himself or herself in a manner deemed unbecoming to our organization, or who violates any provision of this agreement, or who violates the ccgtcc Code of Ethics. In such event, there will be no refund of table fees.

• Any dealer allowing someone else to use his or her badge will have the badge revoked for the duration of the Convention and may be denied table space at future Conventions.

• Pre-registration packets are NOT included with dealer contracts. Dealers and table helpers will need to order their own pre-registration packet, if desired, by submitting the proper form and payment. Dealer and helper badges include show admission.

• NEVADA DEPT. of TAXATION: We are required to provide a list of all dealers at our show. At the show, you will receive a Nevada State Dept. of Taxation form that you will be required to fill out and return to the ccgtcc Treasurer (John Zoesch) by the end of the show. If you do not fill out and return the form, you will be in violation of the Nevada State Dept. of Taxation and may not be allowed to take part in future shows in Nevada.
