Message:: [QUOTE="Alegandron, post: 4289859, member: 51347"]I agree.  I understand, but do NOT agree, that sellers can place their coins on various sites.  Perhaps, auctioning them for a better price... taking advantage of arbitrage.  However, as you said, Cuke, WHY?  What is the true marginal benefit of all that effort, selling costs, and loss of time to gain marginal profits?  Arbitrage works when you are moving billions in trading, bank funds, equities, etc. It comes to question:  (and I am not saying this is true), but if you create fakes at "pennies on the dollar", that would be the only way to make profits... and then, in the LONG run, you get caught, shut down, prosecuted... then, was THAT worth it? LOL, years ago, when I was a wee lad, someone told me "If you are going to steal, steal a million!"  LOL, today, a million would not be worth it!  So change the phrase to say "steal a billion."  Hmmm... if THAT happened, I am sure the people that lost the money would be VERY motivated to FIND YOU, if you tried to hide yourself someplace far away from where you stole.  I figger, it just ain't worth any of it.  Why lie, cheat, steal, etc.  It just all comes back to roost in your nest. Here, i found a coin... [ATTACH=full]1091983[/ATTACH]RR Maianus 135 BCE AR Den Roma Biga S 82 Cr 203-1a[/QUOTE]
