Hi David - I'm not in Vegas until June - this year I have co-ordinated my trip with the convention dates.

Thanks for the offer, and I may let you know if I need to take you up on it - in fact several people have over the years helped me out when I've needed a check sent (one of the great things about the people in this hobby), but I just wondered if there was a cheap (ok, free ) account I could open myself and just keep a couple of hundred $$ in for paying for auctions. Not sure if US banks offer free banking as we have in the UK (usually anyway), especially for overseas customers.
