[QUOTE="ToughCOINS, post: 2760221, member: 20480"]I infer the initial point to express disdain for the implication that non-dealers should believe the CPG is an appropriate guide for purchase prices. You're probably right, however it's pretty easy to tell the dealers from collectors carrying the grey sheet. This effort to redefine the blurred lines will help some and hurt others. Only time will tell who benefits and who does not. I can say that anyone, dealer or not, who walks up to my table and "expects" or "demands" wholesale pricing is not likely to buy a coin from me at all, even when they might have bought at or below that level had they never pushed that button in the first place (coin-dependent, of course). When it comes to buyers like that, I'd just as soon let my competition take the beating, not only on their price but also on their time and patience.
