<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1759012, member: 26302&quot;]Did you read my concern Tim? COLLECTORS may be subject to the law, and required to post a cash bond and obtain a license from the state.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I am all for shutting down coin sweat shops, but this law:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>1. Makes it nearly impossible to comply with for ancient and medieval coins</p><p>2. Possibly subjects collectors to licensing and bonding requirements.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Which part of these two aspects of the law makes coin collecting &quot;safer&quot;? I live here man, and we have been fighting this bill for a year now, but the legislature was completely uninterested in our opinions.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>A good compromise would be to make anyone soliciting over the phone or via advertising to have to comply with such laws, but anyone who only sells from a store or coin show exempt. This would by definition exempt all collectors, and also exempt dealers who set up at coin shows and have a b&amp;m store. The danger is not traditional coin dealers and shows, but rather telemarketers cold callling little old ladies. Like I said, the INTENT of the law was fine, but its implementation is horrid.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
