<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 525361, member: 112&quot;]I suppose the easiest way to think of it is this - it&#039;s a giant circle. Any given coin at some point is sold by a collector to a dealer. That coin may then travel through 15 or 20 dealer&#039;s hands before it is sold to another collector. And this can happen via any avenue, mail sale, shows, auctions, on-line, what have you.</p><p><br /></p><p>So yes, you are right David, eventually any given coin ends up in a collectors hands. But it may take quite a while to get there. The way you have to look at a dealer&#039;s business is this - how much business, $$$ wise, does he do in any set period of time ? If for the sake of argument a dealer does $100,000 worth of sales in a month - probably $80,000 of that was to another dealer while $20,000 of it was to collectors.</p><p><br /></p><p>That is the point I am trying to get across.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
