[QUOTE="rld14, post: 515029, member: 16133"]I, for one, do most certainly not make my living by taking advantage of other people but I have a feeling that you have little knowledge of the automobile business and therefore lack the ability to make such statements with any sort of veracity. Anyhow, there's a number of coin stores within about a 20 minute drive of where I live. The one that I go to regularly I have found to be quite honest. I was in his store the other day and watched people who were clueless come in to sell a bunch of silver dollars. He pointed out a 34-S IIRC that was worth about $100 and a Common CC that was worth $100ish as well. These people had no clue and had been offered $8 each elsewhere. Like anything else, there's good and bad in any industry, there's dealers that I have met who are absolute crooks. As far as how do they make money? Well they buy low and sell high, like any other business.[/QUOTE]
