<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mitchell, post: 51324, member: 989&quot;]A dealer in your area is going to give you a price that allows him to make a profit.&nbsp; Selling on Ebay allows customers to buy directly from you, thus you get the opportunity to make the money the dealer would otherwise.&nbsp; I sold some coins when I first started Ebay and was well satisfied with the prices I got.&nbsp; But I did offer a return policy.</p><p><br /></p><p>Trustworthy...... when $$$$ are involved...........?&nbsp; No comment.&nbsp; Just remember, that dealer, ANA or not, is in business to make a living.&nbsp; He is NOT your friend, nor is he interested in doing you any favors.</p><p><br /></p><p>Get an itemized written price from the dealer, then compare to prices they are going for on Ebay.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you are new, and even if you are not, when the dealer offers you $XX for that &quot;MS-60 _____ coin&quot;, chances are that coin is at least a MS-61 or higher.&nbsp; If you do not know what you are doing, a dealer will screw you with the grading.</p><p><br /></p><p>If it is an inherited collection, at least you are not losing your own money by going to a dealer.</p><p><br /></p><p>Some local ANA dealers are just as crooked as the worst Ebay seller.&nbsp; All the &quot;ANA&quot; distinction means is that he pays an annual fee for that logo to be on his door.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
