<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mike at APMEX, post: 3133933, member: 90306&quot;]The Coin Dealer Newsletter is truly a pricing guide. When I go to a show,, I expect to be able to buy coins that are somewhat out of favor at prices under Greysheet. I expect to pay Greysheet price for others. And I will pay over Greysheet for certain other coins. Its the nature of the coin market. Remember, the Greysheets used to be published weekly, monthly and quarterly and are now all published once a month.</p><p><br /></p><p>Certified Coin Exchange (CCE) is an online real time buying and selling exchange. Most dealers look to CCE as another indication of current prices. But the sight-unseen prices on CCE are often lower than prices at which you can buy these same coins at a coin show. That is because these are sight-unseen prices and the buyers will generally take any certified coins at those price levels. Even ugly but graded coins.&nbsp; But CCE also gives you access to recent auction prices as well.</p><p><br /></p><p>The simple fact is there is no single source&nbsp; from which you can derive a definitive price at all times on all coins. This isn&#039;t the New York Stock Exchange. Coins sell at various prices because different circumstances by dealers. If you have too many of the same thing (common date Morgans in MS63 for example), you sell yours cheaper. If they are hard to find, you try to get a little more because its hard to replace them. </p><p><br /></p><p>Coin Dealer Newsletter is a Pricing GUIDE - the operative word is guide. It does a good job of reflecting the market at the time at which the prices were gathered. But the market moves everyday. </p><p><br /></p><p>To compare a Whitman Price Guide with CDN is comparing apples and oranges. One is published a year ago, the other is a weekly or monthly price. The market is NOT static. It moves constantly.</p><p><br /></p><p>The best guide to pricing any coin&nbsp; is to go to a coin show and compare prices from several dealers. Then you will know whether the price guides are too high or tooo low. Thanks.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
