<p>[QUOTE="talkcoin, post: 1710954, member: 38842"]...street rules say that since you helped him (the dealer) with his big win, now he owes you something... I'm starting to think that if he is cutting his ties with the seller and wants it all for himself, then he will most likely make a serious profit and that is where good folks like yourself; with your wealth of knowledge on the given subject, and the willingness to "help authenticate" his new find... Aaaaand since it was a reverse cherry pick and he plans on flipping after re-grading for a nice profit. 11 points sounds fair (11% of total sale that is; as the street pays no attention to net; only gross) in your favor (I always thought the number 10 to be unlucky)... Hey, then maybe you could find the original seller who got no love from this dealer and give him your 11 points worth and then now he can do business with you the next time he wants to sell something. Or if dealer gives you your share, you may help him authenticate more coins in the future.</p><p><br /></p><p>p.s. but this isn't the streets; Thank God and good luck either way :hail:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
