To be honest with you, why would I share the names of the dealers with you that I am able to get the best deals at?

In the spirit of CCF?

Ha Ha - not likely - these dealers are cultivated over many years of paying too much. I am keeping these close to the vest.

LOL...you should have said they were in the US :)...

My best deals were from US dealers too. 1875 quarter in F15 for $500, 1893 RT3 dime in VF30-EF40 for $2300. ;).

Also shows, I get good stuff there too - a 1917 1/2 dollar in XF cost me $30. But we all have these stories! That's what makes collecting fun. But to sell, well that's another matter. AS long as I buy right than I won't have a problem selling since I will make money. Maybe not as much as I want to but I will be selling them for more than I paid. But to think that I will get 75% of trends for my coins? I don't think so, unless I can wait another 25 years (I can't). I will strive to get 50% of trends. No one that I know wants to pay retail. Do anyone really buy coins at retail or full trends? If you do, WHY?

Well, certainly not intentionally... BUT, I've been bitten by the 'got to have it, got to have it', where all good sense seems to vanish. That could be another whole thread for me.
