<p>[QUOTE=&quot;saltysam-1, post: 1131960, member: 23368&quot;]The quantity of truly rare coins is somewhat fixed and the market somewhat stealth when they change hands. This leaves the middle and low ground for dealers and buyers to trade in. As rents and overhead keep increasing so do the prices even if the coins are more common. Certainly a hot item will affect the price because of demand, but the prices go up in regards to business cost as well. Now you need two reputable 3rd party graders to fix a good coins value, and if not a store purchase, you can have pass through on final expenses for auction fees, delivery and taxes. That&#039;s on top of the coins real value. This will continue to creep into the lower tiered coins until their pricing goes up besides. And the demand doesn&#039;t have to change an iota. This is part of the reason why the older collector is more the norm in our hobby. He can afford the unaffordable much easier. IMHO.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
