<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vegas Vic, post: 1989427, member: 58810&quot;]So are there frictionless pulleys where you live? I remember talking about them in high school physics. Unless I&#039;m mistaken ( wow I actually have to number these)</p><p><br /></p><p>1. There are table fees, hotel costs and airfare to list a few. Your dealers have overhead just like any other venue.</p><p><br /></p><p>2. In capitalism the more sellers the more competition the lower the widget price. A show might have a couple hundred. On line there are tens of thousands.</p><p><br /></p><p>3. You are forgetting that online collectors also sell. And they don&#039;t mind not getting that extra dealer markup to cover overhead as there is none.</p><p><br /></p><p>4. This is a good example of the concept of online competition. You have a coin a dealer is selling vs what is available on eBay. FYI there is a fourth coin but the picture cut off.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]355949[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>5.&nbsp; at no time am I claiming that ALL coins in any venue are great or problematic. I just state that the increased competition online drives prices down. The old school model is being replaced by online buyers.</p><p><br /></p><p>6. Lastly if you want to pay a premium for coin in hand go ahead. I&#039;m not saying that this is the right or wrong way to buy. I&#039;m saying it is more expensive and with returns unnecessary.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
