I am very aware that if not for dealers there literally would be not hobby. Especially before the internet, how the heck was a collector supposed to find those people who happened to have rare coins for sale? Answer would have been they wouldn't. Dealers literally allow this hobby to happen, to grow, and in many instances dealers have been some of our greatest researchers, authors, and added immensely to this hobby. So this really isn't about dealer bashing, its simply venting at a few dealers who hire others to intentionally bypass rules put in place limiting their orders in order to try to allow individual collectors to buy direct from the mint. I simply believe that is immoral to intentionally bypass these rules.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>

I really respect you and many other dealers here on CT, but I simply have a problem with some other dealers actions in this instance. Btw, I really hope dealers here do not take my objections as dealer bashing. I am very aware that if not for dealers there literally would be not hobby.
