Has anyone ever purchased the MASTER COIN DEALER INFORMATION PACKAGE, DELUXE PLATINUM EDITION from www.coinsecrets.com? I saw the website listed in a coin magazine so I checked it out. Seems like it might be a scam. I would appreciate your thoughts and opinions. Thanks.

I've never heard of it but my immediate reaction to the title is that you will be paying for information you can freely obtain on these boards.

Tom is right, and my immediate reaction is don't waste your time with this 'secret'.

Tell me if I'm wrong (I'm not a coin dealer so what the --- do I know, but I would assume these are the secrets :

 

1. learn how to grade coins so you know whats in the holder or what the value is if it is raw.

2. go to shows and auctions constantly

3. buy great looking coins, get to know the dealers by buying from them as well as talking

4. sell your great looking coins:

 

advertise

have a web site that actually has pictures

photograph well or have someone do great photos

know your merchandise and believe in your merchandise

treat your customers with respect irrespective of how much they spend

 

my guess is that is a full time job with lots of sweat and I wouldn't doubt that those 4 steps are the key to success.

I'll go along with michael, James, and Larry. The 'secret' is knowledge and then lots of experience. And if you're not a member of the American Numismatic Association, try it you might like it.

The secret to being successful in coins is to write a Coin Secrets book and get people to pay $100 for it.
