<p>[QUOTE="LindeDad, post: 1284971, member: 31518"]The true fact is that many dealers really will not ever be in the market to buy from knowledgeable collectors. They would never be able to stay in business with the margins that most collectors are looking for. So they look for estate sales and or the heirs selling collections to make up most of their inventory. Most of them will only purchase at near Grey sheet prices when they are filling a customers want list items IMO.</p><p><br /></p><p> So this leaves a couple of options for collectors first is BST listings usually they are free but not much exposure, second eBay fees run about 10 to 15% but probably the largest market out there. Then comes the auctions houses like Heritage and TeleTrade if your coin or group of coins are over about $5000 they normally cost about 20% or so but offer the best way to handle the high end stuff.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
