[QUOTE="silvermonger, post: 669037, member: 12490"]taking a Redbook would be silly, like a BB-gun to a tank battle take a current greysheet unless you have memorized hundreds of grades and prices if you forget to bring one just ask the dealer what the greysheet is on a particular coin if you are really interested. real professionals have no problem telling you price guidelines they are using and if their price is higher they will explain why If thats a problem you dont want to deal with them anyway, their are too many decent helpful dealers just around the corner. Even the best dealer may politely put you off for a few moments if he is negociating a $5000 deal and you want to ask about a $25 buffalo. Wait your turn even if you are the 5g and the other guy is the buff buyer. what do you see at your local coin club bourse night? Redbooks? of course not, everyone has a loupe on their neck and a greysheet in their pocket and they are only collectors trading among themselves[/QUOTE]
