My claim to fame that gets people to come in with their change is I don't charge a % to do it and if there is any silver, even nickles (which is a huge pain to sort), I pay them extra. Lately, what I've had to do is pay them for the face value first then put all their non penny coins in a ammo can with their phone number then call them later when I've had time after hours to go through it. I profit 4 times face off of each silver coin after paying them Which covers the cost of doing that (electricity, upkeep on the sorter, wrappers, gas to get rid of them, etc etc etc..). Where my real profit off this is selling the rolled change to the gas stations and fast food joints in town who can't ever seem to get a reliable source of coin change. I don't charge them a % either, but I get to meet the employees, managers and workers and teach them how to quickly identify the silver ridged coins and give them the "dealer" price if they sell them to me. I tell them to keep a pocket full of coins so that they can simply swap them out. The register stays spot on, nobody's stealing anything, and I get to make 4x profit off of every thing they bring in. Just the networking alone has been a huge boon.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
