[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 3927493, member: 112"]Yup there is ! The Greysheet aint what it used to be ;) There was a time, but not anymore they're not. The collectors however still are, because they don't know any better - yet. Yup, you bet they will. Do ya know why ? Because for many decades the Greysheet was based solely on the electronic dealer market. But a few years ago that all changed. Ever since then the Greysheet has been based on a wide mix of things just like all other price guides are. But here's the kicker, ALL the dealers know that. But the vast majority of collectors don't know it - they don't have a clue ! They think things are still like they used to be. And since they got used to seeing dealers pull out the Greysheet to determine their buy/sell prices - they think that's what the dealers are still doing when they see them do it today ! Meanwhile the dealers know that they have the collector at a disadvantage and they can buy and sell at prices that are higher/lower, sometimes substantially so, than what the current electronic dealer prices are.[/QUOTE]
