Message:: [QUOTE="se-collectibles, post: 850383, member: 24447"]Nobody's mentioned the term "vest pocket coins" except you. Vest pocket dealer is a commonly used term and has been for years. As a dealer since 1964 you should know that. On another note, someone earlier was talking about profits and how coin dealers are evil for wanting to make a profit but others retailers/resellers aren't viewed that way. Possibly because any Joe can pick up a Redbook and find out that their G'pas 1908 IHC is worth 100 bucks hey you have to pay me 100 bucks because that's what this book says why do i need to learn to grade the book says it's 100 bucks gimme 100 bucks but i paid a grand for this coin over here whattdya mean it's only worth 20 bucks i got it from this place over here or maybe that one on tv and they said it's worth 10 times what i paid you're trying to rip me off you slimy so-and-so all coin dealers are scum i'll get more going down the street you'll be sorry because "they" said it's worth a lot and this book says it's worth a lot and what does that mean "grading" this is the coin in the book see look i told you it's worth that you're gonna be sorry i'll come back and show you all the money i get for this down the street you're a liar and ripoff artist that's what you are i'll show you. Sound familiar?[/QUOTE]
