<p>[QUOTE="Owle, post: 883893, member: 22004"]Week by week as I look into getting top dollar in selling bullion and collectable coins, I would recommend not being at all shy in the transaction, be ready to have the dealer return the coins if he is unreasonable. Offer prices are jumping up a lot for generic certified gold coins. Two well-known dealers quoted much different prices Friday than Thursday as gold shot over $1200. On Thursday, dealer A offered 5% more on the generics than B. On Friday B was offering more than A. They know you don't want to ask for the coins to be shipped back--but I would advise having them do that if the dealer starts playing games on prices. The big dealers get numerous Fax sheets a day. If you are going to get accurate offers you must have a thoroughly typed out sheet of what you are selling, and get the offers in writing via a return fax. </p><p> </p><p>Maybe others here have other suggestions on this topic. If you walk into the local shop without getting offers, from CW advertisers for example, you will have less bargaining power.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
