<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Shortgapbob, post: 245849, member: 6088&quot;]For things like bulk silver, paying 10% over what a dealer offers will leave you with a bunch of material that you really cannot do anything with.&nbsp; In essence, it will be overpaying.&nbsp; It is very risky to get into buying large collections, unless you have a fair amount of experience in the coin hobby.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>My best advice to you would be to offer to help them sort through the collection and see what has value.&nbsp; Although helping them out, it also helps to educate you and give you experience.&nbsp; Instead of buying the whole collection, I would pick out a few nice pieces that you want, and pay them fair money for it.&nbsp; I don&#039;t mean that you should just cherrypick there good pieces, but buy a few things that you really want for your collection.&nbsp; Then, let them take the rest of the stuff and sell it through a dealer.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
