<<Hold on to the XXXX for a few years and then let me know when and if you want to sell it. The guy that I bought the non-CC GSAs back from that I sold to you finally got back to me. He was away for 2 months. He said he would be interested in the XXXX when it becomes available again. Let’s see if we can get it up to 10K!>>


10K, in this economy?

    I'd tell him $9k now or no deal!
    Change that we can believe in is that change which is 90% silver.

    Sounds all very dealery. He'll work to rake the other guy over the coals and make a few bucks from him (and hopefully help you make a few bucks from the other guy). Then the next time you buy a coin from the same dealer he'll do the same to you. Its the way of all merchants. The best ones franchise.

    Interesting insight since it ain't for sale and most likely never will be to this particular dealer. image

    Can we assume that he expected you to keep the coin for more than a few months?
