<p>[QUOTE=&quot;imrich, post: 1753039, member: 22331&quot;]Doug, Based on my experience with local &quot;dealers&quot; they want to &quot;cherry pick&quot; at less than market pricing, rather than acquiring a large lot at a fair price and re-distributing properly through appropriate venues.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Large volume dealers really haven&#039;t enough time to deal with the petty nuances of local wanabe &quot;dealers&quot;. The large volume dealers have an appreciable investment in their inventories, where the wanabe dealers are bickering on virtually every item. and want to profit on every transaction.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I make a &quot;fair market&quot; offer on complete lots taking the material that a specialty collector thought was neat but has less than &quot;junk&quot; resale value upon selling. I gamble as a hobby hoping that I can resell the less desirable material at a minimal loss, possible finding a future appreciative home for the &quot;market acceptable&quot; material.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I sell quality material 4-5 figure dollar lots at less than market pricing, including &quot;loss leader&quot; high grade dollars. half dollars at ~melt value. I constantly receive local dealer requests to purchase the quality dollars and halves at coinflation prices. I offer to purchase comparable material to mine at 110% of coinflation pricing, and supply them with a collectors universe (published owner of coinflation) contact for directions to acquire their quoted priced material.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>A reasonable &quot;real&quot; dealer or investor who recognizes quality always arrives to purchase the lots offered. This happens regularly in the &quot;real world&quot; where you don&#039;t always win, but count on the average being positive.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>JMHO <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
