<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GregH, post: 2696190, member: 75936&quot;]I haven&#039;t seen his tax returns so I don&#039;t know if he&#039;s really making much money. Mostly he sells low grade junk which he probably bought in bulk at auctions, and a few gems - also from auctions - which he&#039;s marked up by an order (or two) of magnitude. What&#039;s probably keeping him in business is (1) the easily fooled newcomer and (2) experienced collectors who don&#039;t care about his morals and use the &quot;make an offer&quot; option to bring prices&nbsp; down to reasonable levels.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t expect such a business model will make him fabulously wealthy, but it may provide enough cash to just get by. If he wants to be truly successful he should focus more on the customer and less on himself.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
