<p>[QUOTE=&quot;srkjkd, post: 359519, member: 7248&quot;]once again..this is not going to be popular, but my example was one in which all involved could profit (tho less) than pride oneself on buying a coin for $50 worth 10k! if you MUST have the money, couldn&#039;t you buy it., then get w/ the consignnor and auctioneer afterward and resell, splitting the profit?&nbsp; at least, even after fees, you and the consignor could both make close to 4k.&nbsp; if you can only afford a $50 coin...what a gain 4k would be and you would be sharing w/ the rightful owner!!!!!&nbsp; when is enough going to be enough?????</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; you can twist my opinion any way you wish.&nbsp;&nbsp; whether you are a dealer or a collector.....how do you think you would feel&nbsp; selling a 10k coin for $50??? what would you feel if it happened to your mom, dad, son, or daughter?&nbsp;&nbsp; too bad for you..guess you should have known better and had a better numismatic education (whether it was one you collected or maybe you inherited it).&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; i would apologize to you all if i felt different. i even tried to put my opinion in an instance where you would still make 4k off a $50 investment. </p><p>&nbsp; if you have never been poor or have never been taken advantage of in any transaction, it may be hard to understand my reasoning.....but really....if you were the seller and had no idea til after the auction or transaction....i guess it would be fine w/ you knowing your lack of knowledge of die variety #7 of a certain series is so special, many people (who could afford it and more) would pay 9k additional for your coin is cool.&nbsp; if so, would it be ok if you sold to a dealer specialist for the same price?&nbsp; oh well, he needs get a good deal.....</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;once again, i hate to be a wank, but when is enough going to be enough???&nbsp; we lose track of how blessed we are when we are not eating DIRT mixed w/ butter (Haiti) as well as how truly we have a poor class here in&nbsp; the U.S.A. we should be happy we are able to collect coins in the true perspective of things.&nbsp;&nbsp; vent #2 over. once again proving i will NEVER win a popularity contest.&nbsp;&nbsp; sorry for the semi off topic rant.......steve[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
