[QUOTE="chip, post: 652967, member: 19122"]"Is that not the stupidest thing you've heard? " Oh believe me, I have heard way lots more stupider things than that, on one of my trips a dealer had a printout of ngc graded ms-70 silver eagles and was offerring me a bargain at 60 bucks for a raw silver eagle and it was not a 96. I do not think the dealer was stupid either, I think he thought I was stupid, I had stopped at his place after work and had not cleaned up, maybe he was trying to discourage me from returning? But anyway I could not resist a little chuckle, and asked him if he had any libertads, I picked up an 82 for 14.50, before I left he told me he might be able to go down to 30 on the silver eagle, I smiled and said no thanks. I cant blame people for testing the waters, and the way the economy is around here prices people get for collections has had to have fallen. I know a few people who like to invest in bullion, and they are completely unconcerned with grades, types mintmarks or dates all they want to know is how much it weighs, maybe your erstwhile buyer was a bullion buyer testing the numismatic market, except if he was he probably would have tried to offer you spot price which might be really insulting.[/QUOTE]
