<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jaceravone, post: 1867349, member: 9474&quot;]My good friend happens to be my coin dealer, so every day I am hanging at his shop.&nbsp; These very same types of people come in all the time.&nbsp; He is just very patient with them and tries to explain things to them in a way they understand.&nbsp; For instance, most people like this get their pricing info from the Red Book or some other sort of retail price guide.&nbsp; My buddy just explains to them that this pricing is usually retail pricing from one collector to another, but as a dealer, he has to make some money to pay his overhead costs so dealer prices are much less.&nbsp; Most customers understand this, but not all.&nbsp; Its just taking the time to look through what they have and explaining things to them.&nbsp; Here is another example.&nbsp; A customer brought in a roll of memorial cents.&nbsp; Can&#039;t remember the date. But in the Red Book, it said that in MS67 RD each one of these was worth $35 so he wanted $35x50.&nbsp; My dealer just had to explain to this guy how grading worked and that there may be one or two that would grade that high, but most would be less.&nbsp; The guy couldn&#039;t understand how a UNC roll would grade for anything less than MS67RD per cent.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
