Breitling – Dinar Guru Why are [brokers] willing to pay a lot more than they used to to buy your dinar back? They’re selling it to these guys [large currency investors] that’s why. It’s that simple…It’s hard getting money out of Iraq. It’s not easy. It would come from Iraq to Jordan to the United States. And from the banking industry in the United States it went from the [CBI] auction floor to Bank of America to Chase Bank. And that’s where I bought my currency – Chase Bank. So that’s a couple routes on how that currency gets here. But it’s dried up. That system doesn’t work anymore. So there isn’t as much dinar in the market…

BGG ~ I beg to differ with Breitling’s synopsis as to why brokers are willing to “pay a lot more” than they used to – to buy Dinar back.

It’s because THEY HAVE TO. When we (Dinar Updates / The Dinar Exchange) first got into the “Buy – Sell” market we did two things:

1) We started paying A LOT more than everyone else as a “Buy-Back” price. We still are. We currently pay $850 per million (for uncirculated). Quick turn – no gimmicks.

2) We also started selling for A LOT less than everyone else. 

Our current sales price is $975 per million (shipping included).

The spreads these jokers were making on people were JUST RIDICULOUS. They were paying $500-600 on the buy side and then getting $1100-1300 on the sell side. CRAZY!!

It just wasn’t fair at all.

The real reason they are paying more – isn’t that they are “willing to”…

It’s that they HAVE TO.

If they don’t – they won’t get any and they won’t be able to compete.

It is just that simple – economics in action.

CBI MAKES BIG BIG ANNOUNCEMENT… GETTING READY FOR THE “RECOVERY” OF THE DINAR TO IT’S FORMER WEALTH!!

Revealing a study to delete zeros from the Iraqi currency .. The reason?

BAGHDAD / .. The parliamentary Finance Committee, a study to delete zeros from the national currency, but they ruled out the application at the moment for several reasons.

“The proposal to delete the zeros has been submitted from the House of Representatives to the Parliamentary Finance Committee in order to study the change of the national currency and all categories and the printing of new coins, but the preliminary study showed that the costs needed by the project is great,” the committee’s rapporteur Ahmed al-Saffar told reporters.

Al-Saffar pointed out that “deleting the zeros is a project with psychological effects rather than being actual, as the citizen will feel that his money is compatible with the requirements of his life and the movement of supply and demand and equal to hard currency.”

Aynaliraqnews.com

BGG ~ This sounds a lot more like an OP ED piece from Al-Saffar. If so – I would tend to listen to  Al-Nusairi much more than some vague MP at the head of one of these rinky dink Parliamentary committees.

1) Al-Nusairi is still positive.

2) They are discussing the project right now (reportedly).

3) I am very skeptical the “hold-up” is the cost of printing and minting. I am assuming since they have had this project “in the hopper” since 2012 they have long ago had lower denoms printed and ready. Coins / fils? maybe not.
