Now these numbers may seem extreme, but I have even seen worse.
So the simple answer as to why - the books are not accurate in regard to value. |
Then, what would you recomend the laymen use to gauge pricing Buying and Selling... I've never sold anything and don't plan to for anytime to come, but I'd like something other than my gut to help me decide if its a good buy or not.....
I'm sure I've way over paid on a few coins for any number of reasons, # 1 Being I did not know any better....
I respect your opion is why I ask...
