<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Restitutor, post: 4799050, member: 112621&quot;]No worries at all! I think perhaps this may be a “generational” thing. I’m relatively young and new to the market. I think dealers have immense value, and were I ever to have to liquidate my collection I would sell them to either a dealer or auction house, whoever gave me more money <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie84" alt=":smug:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Point being, I think my <i>issue </i>is when dealers purchase coins available to the end consumer directly. If I lose a coin in a CNG auction to a dealer, I must now go to that dealer to buy the coin, when I could have already just had it from CNG.</p><p>If you a hobbyist sell a coin to a dealer, or another dealer sells a coin to a dealer that was never available to the end consumer, and I then buy that coin, I have no issue there.</p><p><br /></p><p>My “utopia” world is strictly about when a dealer buys a coin that is at the same time being offered to end consumers. That is what I wish would diminish. I have bought from both dealers and auction houses and will continue buying from whoever sells high quality coins at a reasonable rate. I just don’t want to have to compete with those same dealers in a public auction![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
