<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vegas Vic, post: 1985372, member: 58810&quot;]I never said I don&#039;t buy from dealers. I said a relationship is not necessary. I buy from whomever offers coins I love at acceptable prices. But who that person is means nothing to me. Our relationship is irrelevant&nbsp; What margin they need to stay in business is also irrelevant. Sounds tough? It is the new coin business reality. Watch what happens in the market. As increasing on line competition squeezes profit margins on both the buy and sell you will probably see something like 9/10 coin dealers go out of business over the next twenty years. Think it can&#039;t happen? Tell Netscape about it. Tell the kodiac people all about how their services will be needed forever. How about those buggy whip manufactures? Been to a Hollywood or blockbuster video store lately? Bought a stand alone gps anytime recently? How is that cassette player working out for you? Made any mixed tapes lately? </p><p><br /></p><p>As technology changes the fabric of our society changes. See many gas station attendants lately? Jobs once necessary become obsolete as time passes. It can happen to any job. No one is immune, not even me. Any job is at risk as time passes. Watch what happens to taxi drivers when the google cars go from trial to everyday use. </p><p><br /></p><p>Coin dealers function is to bridge the gap from seller to buyer. How willing are you going to be to pay someone to do this job when you already know all the buyers yourself via the internet. Are you going to pay someone to do something you can easily do yourself? Maybe &quot;you&quot; will, but there will be few and far between. Like I said the coin dealer is a career with a bleak future. I didn&#039;t create this situation I just am able to perceive it. Hate the message not the messenger.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
