<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 268721, member: 4552"]If your young as 14 and you want to start in business already, great for you. Better than roaming the streets and robbing and killing like around here. Now as a suggestion. Here is something you can do with minimum investment. I go to numerous coin shows. At one of the bigger ones there is a dealer that I got to know pretty well over the years. They do a fantastic business at all shows they attend. Thier primary product is modern coins and I mean modern coins. They are not slabbed, just in 2x2's or many in 1-1/2 x 1-1/2" sizes. Small ones are cheaper. Now here is what they do. They go to a bank where they are known. Ask for as many rolls of new coins as possible or they can afford. They now take them home, place in the flips, write MS- and whatever they think they can get away with. It's amazing how many customers they have. Over the years they have expanded to including proof coins in individual flips. They order lots and lots of proofs, break them apart and sell each coin separately. </p><p>For a 0.01 Cent from the bank in a 2x2 they charge $1. Nickels are $2. Dimes are $3 or even $4. etc., etc. </p><p>Talk about profit. </p><p>Each proof is Red Book priced but if you know them you can get for a little cheaper. They still make a fortune on each proof set. Occationally they also sell rolls of uncir coins right from the bank and also at a fantastic profit. Not sure if they ever tried ebay but why should they. Coin shows almost every weekend around here. Maybe they do use ebay. It's not illigal and they are selling what comes out of the rolls. </p><p>Lots of profit if your intersted. </p><p>Note also most coin forums contain a buy and sell forum so that could also be a place for that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
