[QUOTE="jgreenhood, post: 551067, member: 17030"]I don't think coin dealers will be disappearing. There are many people who think they know what they have only to learn later that a dealer would have paid them more than what they got. I know so many love buying from ebay & think selling on there is a great idea but you can just as easily be robbed via ebay. By the way US mint is not a coin dealer they just make the coins. When they are out they are out. They do not buy & sell coins. Also it doesn't make sense for some one who needs 1 modern coin to be ordering rolls. By the way don't think customers are so innocent of that either. We had a lady order $65 of State quarters only to accuse us of sending her circulated ones. *sigh*.

Grrrrr Buy the way why would the mint sell coins for less value due to it being returned when they refund all but shipping? Ok getting off the soap box done ranting.[/QUOTE]
