[QUOTE="Derek2200, post: 4937824, member: 106755"]No - I don’t owe them transparency. They are going to do on their side of the ball what’s best for them. As far as some hostile pop segment I don’t care what they think anymore than some segment that thought everything orbited the Earth. 1. it’s none of their business what my cost in a coin is or the costs of my business. 2. Many are ignorant or don’t care what it costs to be in the business nor will I be low balled by them. 3. The US coin market (except for impact from the metals) has been in a loss of altitude for sometime (PCGS 3000). Anyone who can read a graph understands that. Realistically nobody can really make money in a stagnant market which is like a slugfest for any dollar made. 4. Sometimes I have them quote what wholesale bid is - I just tell them go find one. 5.
