Which essentially removes wealth from families.&nbsp; The same as what the big banks do. People still ask for more credit cards too don&#039;t they?</p><p>&nbsp; Which is fine I suppose.&nbsp; It&#039;s the responsibility of the collector to document what they have.&nbsp; A fool and his money, you know?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; While I&#039;m the last person who wants to defend the incompetent masses, who are too lazy to read concerning anything in their lives,&nbsp; it&#039;s hard to say, &quot;YAY! for the dealers.&quot;&nbsp;&nbsp; I suppose they do earn some of it for spending all the money and taking the risk to be in the position to take advantage of the deal....&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp; The problem with coin dealers is that second word in their title.&nbsp;&nbsp; How many people here love car &#039;dealers&#039;?&nbsp; Do you have a favorite one?&nbsp; When every time you go there, what you own is junk and what they have is pure gold?</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; It&#039;s hard to go to a car dealer and enjoy that experience.&nbsp; Being offered $4k for your trade in when they plan on turning around and selling your vehicle for $8500.&nbsp; Having to fight for every penny.&nbsp;&nbsp; Almost no difference here. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Regardless of how much profit anybody thinks they&#039;re &#039;entitled to&#039; for owning a business, 100% profits or much more at the consumer&#039;s expense (and don&#039;t say it doesn&#039;t happen regularly) is going to leave a bad taste in people&#039;s mouths.&nbsp; Why should that be a surprise?&nbsp; Whether it was fair or unfair.&nbsp;&nbsp; Be it on purpose or by accident.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;I guess you can&#039;t worry about every little thing but I don&#039;t even want to get into grading and what&#039;s been cleaned or not.&nbsp; In my experience anyway.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <font size="4">Although I&#039;ll admit, complete blanket statments concerning this, (some that I have made), have been unfair.&nbsp;&nbsp; </font></p><p><font size="2">&nbsp; It&#039;s impossible to come up with a hard, factual number of how many bad dealers are out there or to what extent one would be defined.&nbsp; They&#039;ve done good.&nbsp; They&#039;ve done bad.&nbsp; </font></p><p><font size="2"> So have the big banks in this country.&nbsp; But people don&#039;t have a love affair with them over the good they&#039;ve done. </font>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
