<p>[QUOTE="djdilliodon, post: 937182, member: 25921"]Not only will you need a business certificate and resale certificate (easiest part of getting a business), you will also need to have a Brick and mortar shop. The shop is the hardest part of the game and also weeds out all the small time guys that would just pay 50ish dollars to try and get a dealers discount. Im sure exceptions are made but for them to waive the B&M part you better have one heck of a reputation!</p><p> </p><p>As far as improving your skills at grading, many helpful things already have been mentioned. I will say that a degree in something is always a plus but hands on experience is the key. Focus on a series and stay with it till you become efficient at grading it. Then after that move to another and another ect. I personally like to specialize in a certain area instead of going all over the place. Many major services like ngc, pcgs ect have graders who specialize in a certain coin series.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
