Assuming these offer prices are relatively accurate, what is the typical markup to reach a fair retail value to a potential buyer, if there is such thing as typical. Report this Post to the Staff

hfjacinto Pillar of the Community United States 7293 Posts	Posted 08/11/2024 08:40 am It all depends on the coin and how many the dealer has in stock. For example a common date Morgan may get way below greysheet if the dealer has a lot in stock and he may charge under grey sheet. A proof bison nickel may get above greysheet if the dealer has a buyer. I've paid below, at and above greysheet depending on the coin. Most items a dealer needs to make 20% to break even so retail may 30-40% above dealer cost with space for negotiation, but it really depends on the coin.
