fenton Pillar of the Community United States 4989 Posts	Posted 11/28/2010 12:50 am Since it is in the sellers best interest for "unsearched" lots to occasionally contain key dates, I think a buyer can be reasonably assured that if they play the game long enough they will find some nice coins particularly if they are a repeat customer. (i.e. if I were a lot seller on ebay and some guy bought $500 face of junk silver every week at a nice markup over melt, I'd toss in a key date or Gem BU coin occasionally to keep him tethered to my store) Report this Post to the Staff
fenton Pillar of the Community United States 4989 Posts	Posted 11/28/2010 10:06 am Another thing dealers can do is buy rolls of wheaties at wholesale in approximate proportion to actual mintage inclusive of key dates, scramble them, throw in a couple of gem bu reds for fun, and then sell in randomized lots with a built in average profit margin. That way, searchers can have the thrill of the hunt and with some luck they might get a monster roll. Little risk for the dealer provided he sells all the coins. His feedback will be great since regular searchers will find many keys and buyers will do better on price since they are buying in bulk. Report this Post to the Staff

Repeat business is not one of their goals. Report this Post to the Staff
