<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vegas Vic, post: 1986404, member: 58810&quot;]I&#039;m not specifically talking about any particular venue or situation. I was just making random references to make a point about the new coin collector. This person just entering the coin world is usually enthusiastic and at the same time by definition a novice. My point is there is this vicious kill or be killed attitude out there and many experienced collectors take a &quot;tough luck&quot; attitude to the misfortune of the new collector, as you just did above. The whole point I was making is many of these first time buyers are going to get burned in a market as vicious as coins. So what I was talking about is my opinion is that many of these first time buyers are going to walk away rather then continue after their first (or second or more) bad experience.</p><p><br /></p><p>We the industry are eating our young and then turn around and wonder why there are not more people collecting coins. one poster aptly compared coins to used car sales. How many people are going to want to go to a used car dealer and get burned time after time <i><b>for fun?</b></i>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
