<p>[QUOTE="Kryptonitecomic, post: 1073167, member: 26784"]Not to jump into the fray but the comments made by NN are just not true or your possibly misconstruing what was written because dealer bid/buy prices have always been for white coins...always becuase there is no way to sight unseen post a bid price for a toned coin as no too are alike? That information changes the whole contexts of what was suposedly written in Numismatic news doesn't it or did they provide some sort of proof?</p><p><br /></p><p>How do I know the comments are untrue.....well for startes I am neck deep in the market, my friends are neck deep....I see what folks are paying or are willing to pay for toned coins across all venues including shows. I am a buyer myself for inventory and my collection...I know what i have to pay and I know what i have had to pay over the past 5 years and yes there was drop in prices after the battle creek sales that coincided with the economy tanking....2006/2007 but I can assure you that the market has rebounded a good chunk of the way back to 2005 levels. Evidence of that comes from the Sunnywood sale and Bryan Sonier sale...those coins brought moon money even for the most common dates.</p><p><br /></p><p>You would say that I am biased in my reporting of what's going on across dealer networks but I am simply reporting the reality of what is going on in the market and that was once again enhanced by my purchase of roughly 80 toned coins yesterday at FUN. Enhanced by my discussions with dealers of both toned coins and dealer who don't specialize in them but might have a few at their tables from time to time. Where Newmismatic news is getting there news from I surely don't know but the market they are describing most be in a parallel universe becuase I don't see any truth to what was written. If I was buying toners at strong prices and then losing money selling them on Ebay....how long do you think I could afford to continue with that practice if there wasn't a ready supply of buyers grabbing them up....how about Dick from greatoning....?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
