<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Insider, post: 2569552, member: 24314&quot;]Developing a relationship w/local dealer is the best way to get coins at good prices once you are &quot;IN.&quot;&nbsp;&nbsp; It will take some time and some purchases on the high side in the beginning.&nbsp; You my confine your buys to generic stuff like proof sets that should not be way over priced.&nbsp; Key is go visit plenty and ALWAYS leave some money behind.&nbsp; Do not question any prices or grading.&nbsp; If you come across anything that does not fit your interests, take them to the dealer and give him a price he loves.&nbsp; Ask if he ever needs help doing the yearly inventory you can help.&nbsp; Just be a nice friendly guy and buy stuff.&nbsp; Show him a coin (tell him your wife gave you a present) and ask what he thinks about it.&nbsp; Remember, he knows more than everyone...<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie52" alt=":hilarious:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie52" alt=":hilarious:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Over time, you should get some great prices, get to look at Newps, have a place to hang out, and best of all you&#039;ll get to put stuff you cannot afford on layaway!</p><p><br /></p><p>We had almost a dozen coin shops in the metro area.&nbsp; As a rookie collector, I was thrown out of four of them for one reason or another.&nbsp; Several of them were rude.&nbsp; Within, a few years it all changed.&nbsp; All became friends who valued my opinion and treated me like a king![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
