I'm sure with the spread of the internet and ebay in particular, profit margins are considerably slimmer than they once were in the coin business. Oh sure, the market has expanded, but now you would have to do a much higher volume of business just to keep up. What to do? Look for greener pastures I guess. Why not? I don't care what you call them, idiot, sucker, collector, collector/investor, investor, con-artist, whatever, all you see is green. It looks like a pure case of greed to me. I do not believe for one minute, high end collectors want or need your "services" anyway. Most of the ones I have met, have a good idea what they are doing. For that matter, what makes you or any other "grader" of casino chips an expert anyway? How would I know that you know more than me? These are my perceptions.....yours (like all those butts) may vary.
