<p>[QUOTE=&quot;clembo, post: 325159, member: 8033&quot;]Excellent point your Noodleness!</p><p><br /></p><p>One of my dealers is rather disorganized and I like it. He buys stuff all the time then forgets. I am a VERY trusted customer so he will often give me a box of &quot;stuff&quot; and let me go through it or even peruse behind the counter if it&#039;s lunchtime.</p><p>Over the years I&#039;ve sorted &quot;junk&quot; silver, tons of Whitmans and boxes of miscellaneous for him.</p><p><br /></p><p>If I find something worthwhile I let him know immediately. It pays to keep his trust as I get some good deals this way. Once found a higher end AU 1813 Bust Half in a box. He put it in the case at $600. Sat there for a long time before I asked what he could really do for me on it. Quoted me $425 and my &quot;credit is good&quot;. Fine slapped in layaway till I could really afford it. Love that coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>When I wanted to &quot;beef up&quot; my buffalo nickels I&#039;d just pick out certain Whitmans and he&#039;d give me a price for the whole folder. Paid a buck each for one folder that had an XF 31-S and an F12 19-S. Think I paid $30 for a folder of 30 coins but two made it well worth my while.</p><p><br /></p><p>Soooo.... back to the original post. Find a good dealer and get to know him. Gain his trust by EARNING it. Deals will start to flow after time.</p><p><br /></p><p>clembo[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
