Senior Discounts for Coins?

There are a lot of CAC coins now being offered way over price guides. I'm reading collectors should expect to pay 10-15% minimum above the CAC guide as supply is limited and dealers are holding firm on their asking prices.

That might be fine for some; but, seniors may not have the time needed for price guides to catch up.

    This makes no sense.

    I know a shop that advertises as friendly to seniors....a good sales tactic. It is an aging hobby. Probably most of the serious collectors are over 65.

    I thought the years of experience and keen sense of the hobby were supposed to help nab the discount.

    Age usually means experience, and experience should help you recognize good values. There's your discount. :D

    PCGS should give a 10% fee discount for seniors, a 10% discount for military/first responders, a 10% discount for AAA, total 30% fee discount if you qualify for all three.
