[QUOTE="clembo, post: 908717, member: 8033"]I've read a lot of posts here and replied over 6000 times now. I work in a coin shop. I pale in comparison to many here in terms of knowledge and spending money for sure. To others I know a lot more and spend a lot more. BEFORE I worked in a shop I was good for at least $500 a month in coin purchases. Now that I work in a shop it's usually less than $100 a month and I get better prices. Problem is I make less and see more. Wish I still had the $500 budget but I don't. So be it. I have little respect for "modern" coins yet I still respect the collector of them. Whatever floats your boat and fits your budget. I see it on a daily basis at work. Everyone has different tastes and budgets. I wait on them all and give them all the same attention. It's what I do for a living now. CT is a lot like that. Tuesday I made a $1 sale to a regular. Today I sold $800 to another. Both good customers. Different budgets and interests. Common thread? COIN COLLECTORS. So what was this thread about originally? :)[/QUOTE]
