In this episode of Hard Money Matters on AM 930, host Kyle Warren and guest John Maben, owner of Pegasus Coin and Jewelry, discuss the importance of vigilance in the precious metals market, emphasizing the principle of "caveat emptor" (let the buyer beware). Maben, with over 40 years of experience, warns against unscrupulous companies and high-pressure sales tactics that exploit hype, often leading to overpriced products or scams. He highlights the value of building trust through face-to-face relationships at Pegasus, contrasting this with impersonal telemarketing firms. The discussion covers pitfalls like unreliable shipping methods (e.g., FedEx or UPS) that risk theft, the concept of premiums over spot prices, and the misconception that a coin’s age determines its value. Maben stresses educating customers to make informed decisions without providing financial advice, offering insights into industry practices and the importance of condition over age in numismatic coins.
