<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Pocket Change, post: 811659, member: 8012&quot;]In all the posts I&#039;ve seen about dealers, starting a business and stories such as what the OP posted, I really have come to the conclusion that this is the only way that Brick &amp; Mortar dealers can survive.</p><p><br /></p><p>You have to get your &quot;stuff&quot; from somewhere and while apparently &quot;dealer to dealer&quot; transactions happen frequently, you&#039;re not getting exceptional deals.</p><p><br /></p><p>I know the &quot;80-year old lady&quot; pulls at everyone&#039;s heart strings, but it&#039;s the same for everyone - if you show up at a coin dealer wanting to sell some coins, you most likely have a sad story to tell.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m sure after years of dealing with clueless old ladies, starving college students and despearate middle-aged men, coin dealers are pretty calloused by now.</p><p><br /></p><p>When someone on this forum rips off an ebay seller because they put the item in the wrong category or are selling coins and obviously don&#039;t know what they&#039;re worth, I don&#039;t see the COIN POLICE get in line to beat that person up.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
