<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JPeace$, post: 1985593, member: 42727&quot;]Vic,</p><p>I agree with much of what you have stated in this thread.&nbsp; The coin industry is changing.&nbsp; Because of the internet, people are buying more and more coins without ever talking to or stepping into a dealer/B&amp;M store.&nbsp; Those dealers that don&#039;t adapt will wither and die.</p><p><br /></p><p>However, that being said, I think it is also WISE to try to develop a relationship with a dealer.&nbsp; Someone you can trust.&nbsp; Someone that is connected.&nbsp; Someone who has access to coins that you want that may never hit the internet (eBay, HA, Legend, DLRC, etc...).&nbsp; I hope to find one for myself.</p><p><br /></p><p>IMO, it&#039;s smart to use all the tools available to acquire coins for your collection.&nbsp; I&#039;ve bought almost all my coins via the internet.&nbsp; But, I&#039;d still like to find a trusted dealer who&#039;s out there searching for coins that he/she knows I might like.&nbsp; IMO, it&#039;s an additional set of eyes.&nbsp; That good, trusted dealer will likely have his own network in which you can draw upon.&nbsp; I want them to open up avenues to coin in which I don&#039;t have access to or the time to access.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m not sure if the dealer will be eliminated, or whether the coin show will fade into the sunset, but while they are available, I&#039;m want to use that tool.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
