[QUOTE="Duke Kavanaugh, post: 812774, member: 20544"]I dont really know what to say. That your coworker is warped. Our hobby is no more of greedy then anything that is in the capitalist system. There is profit and there is loss in everything and to ignore that would be crazy unless you are filthy rich and even then it's only to a point that they would ingore that value. I guess our hobby would not be not be "greedy" if we were in a socialist utopia. Really look at people here. Posting constests like Flyers or Rickey B giving out coins for free...shoot Ryan Brooks is 15 and gives freely. Not to mention the anonymous gifts of the $1 dollar web notes and such that were given out reciently! Sure there are greedy people in the business but to say that a person making 20% for being a dealer to buy it or for the same to sell it is not greedy.
