[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1322460, member: 112"]Never overlook the obvious - it's title is after all the Coin Dealer's Newsletter. Yes, collectors can buy or even subscribe to the CDN. But it's intended use is for coin dealers. Suit yourself, but you do yourself a disservice by doing so. As a general rule you can get better prices on just about any coin at a coin show can than you can anywhere else. You can generally find the most difficult to find coins at a coin show. And you can generally find more examples of a given coin at a coin show than anywhere else. And to top it all off coin shows are the college classrooms of numismatics. Even if you never buy a single coin at one you will benefit greatly by going to coin shows. In all honesty, I think that's a very unrealistic expectation. Coin prices constantly change, sometimes weekly. How could any one person ever be expected to keep up with the current value of every coin in every grade in their inventory ? You can't, it's impossible.[/QUOTE]
