<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1506055, member: 26302&quot;]For the first part, I know exactly what you are saying yet it still happens. You cannot, except by knowledge, avoid getting ripped off by dealers. Some will always fleece you, but I do agree SOME of the arguing has gone away, especially concerning fakes, (which I have always said I believe is the biggest benefit of TPG). </p><p><br /></p><p>For the second, of course some dealers specialize in high end. In fact, many of the most recognized experts specialize in the best coins of their specialty. If you have a truly superlative coin this is the dealer you wish to talk to, as he will be in the best position to pay the strongest. I remember a dealer out of Omaha with simply breathtaking early coppers. He always had a very strong selection of the very best coppers you can imagine. The only thing more breathtaking than his coins were his prices. That is why he had such a strong inventory, if you wanted to have one of his coins you would pay dearly. I still wish I had the $15,000 at the time when he had a gorgeous AMERI. cent at the Iowa show in the mid 90&#039;s. Man, that was a pretty coin. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
