The most effective way to get paper money is not through general circulation, but through dealers, collectors, auctions, and shows. Another way to buy/sell notes is through mail auctions. The IBNS has frequent auctions and lots of individuals have their own. The most effective, painless, and sure-fire way to buy and sell notes is through dealers. Dealers range from people who just have large collections to those who keep a large stock of notes for the specific purpose of selling them. In any case, dealers have developed the methods that are most effective for making collectors happy with their transactions. Some people prefer to collect notes from general circulation. This is a good way for someone to start getting interested in paper money, but it's really not a very effective way to collect it.
