<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Drusus, post: 314082, member: 6370&quot;]Not to show how jaded I am but I care as much about a coin dealers money situation as they do mine when it comes to coin prices. I want to get the coin as cheap as possible and they want to make money off the coin...No coin dealer cares what kind of deal I make...they arent saying &#039;well he works hard for his money and deserves to keep some of it&#039;&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> I assume a coin dealer has NEVER sold me a coin that he didnt make a profit on even when I have bought it for what I believe to be cheap...that just means he bought it even cheaper.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I do notice I get better deals at coin shows on world coins...not so much ancients. Mostly because no shipping...mostly when a dealer has gone down on a price is when it was overpriced in the first place and they went down to book value after I examine the guide at home. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I used to think it was better to buy from coin dealers whose rent and food weren&#039;t dependant on making that extra profit on a coin...as I have recieved great deals from sellers like these in the past...I then find myself very satisfied with the prices on some coins I bought from large volume sellers as they are also able to go down a bit on price because of volume.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Unfortunately that leaves the chaps who have been the most expensive in my opinion...the smaller guy professional dealer with rent and food hanging on the price of the coin and not quite enough business to enable them to give as good of deals because they cant make it up in volume sales.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
