<p>[QUOTE="oz_in_ohio, post: 3402662, member: 89534"]I read that you think you are getting ripped off for it. Why dont you ley the coins get buried in your grave so no one else has them??? Thn you wont be ripped off. Look at it in another way... You pay a car yard 15,000 for a new car and they did nothing to make it, did they....All they did was buy from the manufacturer and put 100% profit on for themselves...That is also being ripped off....What about when you go into a restaurant...You tip the sever bringing over plates to you and you could have gone in and got your own ( hense no tip ) that in my eyes is also being ripped off..You could have gone to the supermarket and bought the ingredients to make the same meal at home but were too lazy..Instead you prefer to get ripped off by the restaurant charging 3 times the price you would have paid for the groceries... If you think a coin dealer is going to rip you off, then i suggest you make a study of numismatics for approximatly 20 - 25 years , then open up a shop, then place retail price on them and then sit in the shop twiddling your thumbs waiting for a customer. You will pay rent, phone, electricity, advertising etc etc etc because someone else may earn $5 or more than what you may think it is worth by selling it wholesale...This is just one word and that is GREED!!!....I suppose you would rather go to all that expense , torture , anguish, hardship and not sell them outright to another dealer... I sense a lot of distrust in your words so how could anyone buy off you if you dont want to let others have a go...Remember the old saying, there has to be some meat on the bone for the next person...Lots of luck with getting ripped off......Now onto these heirs... ( THE YOUNG GENERATION OF TODAY ) ...They are only going to sell the items and if you think otherwise, you are fooling yourself.... I personally <b><span style="color: #ff0000">left my kids nothing </span></b>as they showed no interest so i melted my gold and silver into bullion and then sold the rest on fleebay and enjoyed the money on about 6 few cruises. Have a nice day.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
