<p>[QUOTE="JCB1983, post: 1357622, member: 23885"]Why not use the greysheet? This is one of the only markets that I have ever heard of where there is a "dealer’s price-guide." Everywhere else the luxury of being the dealer is buying in bulk and selling in smaller quantities. In the day of the internet, the free market dictates against a duel price-guide. I do not understand this concept. Basically you are telling me that the dealers are entitled to cheaper prices, but this doesn't make sense to me. Besides some future business dealing and the aspects of positive networking, I don't see why a seller would want to release his product for a cheaper price than he could get in the first place.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is where I believe the coin world has it all wrong. It is not about the seller at all. The buyer is king. The consumer has all of the power in the coin world and if the seller is in a long-term position of providing coins, than it should be a result of meeting the consumer’s demands. Just opinion here. I hope I didn’t offend anyone. </p><p><br /></p><p>This concept of "this is what the dealers pay" does not make any sense.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
