ebay ancients

Hey guys.. Im new to the collecting of ancients, however, im already becming frustrated by the majority of sellers that i buy from. Ive done my best to research the sellers i buy from, and they all seem to be gr8, however, i feel like they are constantly advertising falsely, just to turn a profit. I have never found a lot of ancients to be truly unsearched. uncleaned, yes, but any idiot can see the relative value of an ancient without cleaning it. Even when ive bought so-called premium ones, they still fell short, and you can forget about finding silver, or gold. I understand theyre inert metals, but some have to slip by, right? Is theyre really anyway to buy a lot of ancients, sealed by the excavators, without another going through them?, or do i have to travel to europe, with a metal detector in hand, to find anything worthwhile?
Sincerely frustrated numismatist!!!!
