Just to stir the pot a bit... I know you know this, too, but let's stipulate that there are market makers that don't generally handle "retail" accounts, or that are known for handling institutional accounts or for selling stock into the market on behalf of issuing companies. MMs like VERT, MAXM and BMAS come to mind -- but they can and do make exceptions. And that doesn't suggest any conclusion regarding the flip side of the question. As I posted earlier, many "retail" brokers will accept a stock certificate for shares that were acquired privately and that were formerly restricted, once the legend has been removed.
