<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mikem2000, post: 1422736, member: 30574&quot;]Amanda,</p><p><br /></p><p>There are excellent reasons to buy coins from a tradition dealer, you have made several good points on that subject. Tradition dealers may be the way to go for you. They certainly have a place in the coin world or they would be gone by now. Other channels may be better for other folks though, since they actually enjoy the &quot; hunt&quot;. This discussion however, is not about that. It is about a blanket statement that almost any coin can be bought cheaper from a dealer.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is just plain not true and can cost folks money.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just think through you last statement about haggling at coin shows. Why on earth would these dealers, book a plane ticket, rent a hotel room, spend money on eating out, pay for a table at the show, bust their butt, working all weekend long, and then agree to take a LOWER price, then if they had just listed it on EBAY.</p><p><br /></p><p>It just doesn&#039;t add up.</p><p><br /></p><p>Yes, there are many positives about traditional dealers, price just does not happen to be one of them</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Mike[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
