<p>[QUOTE="Hobo, post: 1079060, member: 11521"]If someone brings in several thousand coins for a coin dealer to make an offer would you expect the dealer to spend several hours to review each and every coin and make a top-dollar offer for the coins - for FREE? Or would it make more sense for the dealer to offer "melt" (or a fair price for generic coins) for a huge batch of unsearched coins? </p><p> </p><p>On the other hand, do you think the dealer would offer more for the keys and semi-keys if you walked in his store with the keys and semi-keys separate from the generic coins? A seller can help himself by going through his coins and pulling out the keys and semi-keys. </p><p> </p><p>You might say that the benefits go to the person that searches bulk coins. That can be the seller or the buyer. </p><p> </p><p>What kind of reaction would you expect from a coin dealer if you went to the bank, got 10 rolls of half dollars and asked him to make you an offer? I would expect him to offer you face price (if that). It is up to you to search the rolls for silver and rare coins. The dealer does not have time to search your coins for you - for free.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
