<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Morgandude11, post: 1605577, member: 37839&quot;]Two comments on this thread--first, what is a coin dealer?&nbsp; Anybody who sells coins.&nbsp; The internet has changed the game from a &quot;brick and mortar&quot; coin shop and show game to one that has more global implications. Anybody who does not have a presence online, as well as a physical location is losing a huge amount of business to competitors. This is why there are so many threads on e-bay and grading by photograph, as online unseen buying has become more the rule than the exception.&nbsp; Of course, there are still folks who do coin business the old way, walking the bourse, and stopping at tables, but probably 75% of the business is online now.&nbsp; This makes education far more crucial, and knowledge of what you&#039;re collecting to be essential.</p><p><br /></p><p>Second, giving a dealer a &quot;want&quot; list allows him/her to do the selection for YOU.&nbsp; If you browse, that puts the selection in your ballpark.&nbsp; That way, you can cherrypick, as opposed to the dealer giving you coins that he/she wants to divest themselves of, and reduce their inventory of slow selling coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
