    Some dealers subscribe to a system called "Intelliquote". "Intelliquote" provides real-time pricing information for coins graded by PCGS, NGC, ANACS and ICG that includes Greysheet, Bluesheet, CCE and auction records. The system isn't cheap, it costs about $20000 to get set up and that does not include monthly subscription fees.

    Remember that obtaining access to information isn't the real battle. The real challenge is learning how to interpret the information you have and that not everybody is good at doing that.

    I dont think it would do anything really. Most collectors that I see at shows jsut carry the greysheet around with them. I also see alot of dealers pull out the grey sheet to look at pricing before giving a customer a quote. Any good coin collector should have an idea of what to pay before paying for a coin anyway.

    well that was the point most intellegent buyers carry a grey sheet or sellers but what about people that arent into buying coins they are just passers or walk through's
    like i said would you lose money if you had a interactive computer that listed coin values and no not a computer you could update etc lol period

    As pointed out sometime ago, we collectors have been known to have full access to info, collection want list, etc., via the iphone. You would think dealers are doing it now.
