[QUOTE="The Half Dime, post: 26050653, member: 153164"]I will admit, when I go to shows, the profit margins can be a little hard, but I actually do enjoy coin dealing because I can talk to other people while doing it, plus it is quite fun to do. I do have a lot to learn, especially about categories like foreign coins outside of silver and very common pieces, but I feel comfortable with categories such as more common coins, and some certified coins (if I have a CPG with me). I totally get where you're coming from, but I actually do learn a good amount through dealing. I can see what other dealers are selling stuff for, and from there I can see if they're selling anything. Most of my profit is through local auctions, which doesn't say much about what type of coins sell the best, but being worried about a $300 purchase is practically my mindset - I often can't contemplate buying that over a piece of gold. I do thank you for your time, though, as this must've taken a good 30 minutes to type out.[/QUOTE]
