2014: more or less volume

[50cent]

Just curious to know if you plan on upping your volume for the year, or downing it.


as for me, I plan on upping my volume as always. volume is the skunk's worst enemy.

As I see silver down near the $6-$7 oz. mark, it just won't be worth my time to up the volume. I expect to see more dumped collections though.

Without a doubt...more! The prices will go back up, may not be tomorrow or next year, but the WILL go back up. Start stockpiling.

Hopefully more. I doubt I searched $2000 worth of coin in 2013.

Defiantly adding more volume! I have to make up for taking the last 3 years off. Just added 2 more pickup banks yesterday.

This is not a job, it is a hobby, just remember that folks, you're not going to get rich off of CRH unless you stumble across a once in a lifetime score. I probably spent more on gasoline this year than the silver I found between road tripping, picking up and dumping.

Exac. But what I'm seeing are a lot of free money/get rich quick types entering the hobby and not acting logically. Most people would be better off just finding 5-10 more hours of work a week but not thinking critically about it.

Myself, I'm lowering my volume. Some moron shut down my best branch so I don't want to do 4x the driving for the same results.

I voted lowering my volume as well; however, I am keeping my normal volume. Since there wasn't a "keep the same volume" vote, I couldn't say that I was upping my volume.
I agree with all you say, most people are coming into this as the "get rich quick" types.
I was at my pickup bank getting my weekly order when a guy walks in and asks about ordering half dollars. As I was sitting waiting for my half dollars I heard the teller supervisor tell him, "they don't make half dollars anymore and we cannot order them". The guy bought a box of pennies and left. She then brought out my halves and we both just rolled our eyes. He also asked for CWR's so he can bring back the coins... another big NO in this hobby.

Dont forget the treats. The money I have spent on gas and time and treats is alot more than I have found.

Of course. I spent $85 on treats for my banks this holiday season.

 

[Mtldealer]

I plan on upping my volume. I want to hit 2,000,000 this year.

 

[maverick]

Up the volume, the pay off is in the future, not now, it's called "investing". HH, Maverick.

 

[Vdubguy]

I will defiantly be upping my volume, especially after finding a bank that will let me dump $5,000 in loose halves at one time through their machine behind the counter. I will be keeping record of every cent (nickel, dime, quarter, and half too) searched in 2014, I didn't do this for 2013 and I am so curious how much I searched through to obtain my little stash of AG.

Happy hunting to all in 2014

And happy New Year!!

I'm cutting back have been for the last few months. I hate waisting hours upon hours for a few 40%ers.

I'm only doing 2 boxes a week now and if i have time i have 2 more banks that say i can go in whenever to get some halves.

 

[Uncle Ben]

Well 50....I'm going caraaazzzy in 2014...I'm going to 6 boxes a week up from 4.
