<p>[QUOTE="Soft Coins, post: 1826750, member: 58248"]It a buyer can play by any rules he/she wants than the seller and other knowledgeable numismatists can operate according to rules they believe in; with unscrupulous and rip-off buyers/sellers they can go on this site and many others as well as online sites where you can rate virtually any business or leave problem or good feedback for them as well they should. And the younger generations are quite good at this using all the tools at their disposal to fight against what they regard as problem business activity where every new wave of collector is treated as a potential target of sales gimmicks to get them to part with $$$ to get what the promoters are pushing; and the sellers, in many cases inherators of collections and valuables, may have no idea what their parents/grandparents collections are worth and they become prey for high pressure buying methods as well as dishonest discussion of values. I have heard way too many stories on this theme, only today a fellow who bought a high end '55 DDO for $130 and quickly flipped it for around 10X his buy price! If you went through all the transaction records going back many years to recent purchases of raw coins and currency you would be shocked.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
