    The true value of a buyer

    I have touched on this before but do to several pm's by newer posters I will revisit this situation.

    The judge of the best buyer is not only the best price but the best over all average price along with several other factors and considerations.

    First considerations should be are they members of this forum? If they are they would not be here long if they were flim flam artists.

    There are also other considerations necessary to making the right decision for you.



    HONESTY and INTEGRETY: Your buyer should have the same business ethics you have.

    LOYALTY: Form a relationship, the benefits for buyer and seller will increase with time. Developing a personal as well as a business relation ship can only help.

    Education: are they willing to show or tell you how to maximize profits.

    ADJUSTMENTS: Is your buyer willing to discuss glitches and make adjustments if necessary.

    Prompt service. Prompt Processing, and payment.

    Look at who is doing the most volume, there is a reason for it. it may not be Joe and the family four scrap buyer or electronic waste buyer who today is paying .01 per lb more or .23 more for Gold memory or finger cards but over all performance and dependability. Will they be there tomorrow or when YOU need them.

    NOTE: I can't recommend a Buyer here on the open forum but Most of the old timers know who that is, I have tried other buyers, the reason I choose mine is his company fits all the above requirements. mcw
