<p>[QUOTE=&quot;geekpryde, post: 2027296, member: 36248&quot;]Agreed.&nbsp; Asking a dealer to quote a price <u>today</u> for a coin that he will buy in a &quot;couple of years&quot; makes no sense...&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Also, why would a dealer pay you full retail pricing, when they have expenses, and on top of that, need to make a profit and take something home.</p><p><br /></p><p>Perhaps the poster meant something like:</p><p><br /></p><p><i>What price would you offer to buy this exact coin if I were to come in today as the seller, and not the buyer?</i></p><p><i><br /></i></p><p>An honest answer to that question may help new collectors understand the coin market better.</p><p><br /></p><p>I personally have never asked this question, or one like it, simply because I try to not buy coins that I plan on selling for many years, and I have already established in my own mind where the line in the sand for me is on a particular coin.&nbsp;&nbsp; This &quot;line in the sand&quot; differentiates the price ranges for good-value vs. fair-price vs. a bad-value for a particular coin based on my own research.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
