[QUOTE="clembo, post: 272065, member: 8033"]Well, I think he just said it. This link may give a better idea of what Greysheet is about. [url]http://www.greysheet.com[/url] I subscribe to Greysheet myself. This does NOT mean I go into shows and expect dealers to give me bid or even ask as I am NOT a dealer in the true sense. It does give me a great idea as to trends in certain coins. One DOES have to realize that dealers do have overhead, organization fees etc to be in business. They have to COVER these costs to stay in business. It's just like any other business. One might also note that the typical issue of Greysheet is not like picking up a coin magazine filled with retail prices. What is traded most is what shows up week to week. Quarterly supplements cover many of the other series. Greysheet is most definitely not for everyone. IT IS a useful tool if you know how to use it. Coins magazine has the "trends" value. Greysheet is a much better indication of real trends. Learning the hobby, getting to know dealers and then looking into Greysheet is the real way to go in my opinion. I have collected for over 30 years now and subscribed to Greysheet for 3 years. Depends on how much time you have to study and learn I guess.[/QUOTE]
