    Was browsing the local craigslist ads and came across someone selling their collection, just curious what the approximate value is and what would you guys offer for it? Looks like the silver value alone is over $100. http://rockford.craigslist.org/atq/2784000443.html

    I wouldn't buy coins on Craigslist. My opinion. Not sure if I would buy anything off it.

    If you're going to buy coins from craigslist.com, only buy NGC or PCGS slabbed coins.

    Less likely to be counterfeit.

    Lots of fakes, lots of scams, and lots of junk "treasures" on CL. I talked to a few of them and they had taken coins to a coin show, been told they are junk, and simply refused to believe it. Rare coins are rare......

    People come to craigslist for a deal. Buying something used for 90% the price of new is not a deal. People start seeing things as a deal when the price is set at about 50% of new or less. You would be amazed at how simply adjusting the price of an item you have posted for $285 down to $275 will make the difference between no responses and a full inbox just moments after posting.

Crazy!). People start seeing things as a deal when the price is set at about 50% of new or less.
