Agreed. I learned to use it after one of my more amusing negotiations on eBay years ago: Coin was around $110 Buyer offers $50 I counter at $100...
It hasn’t happened a ton, but it was enough times to be a nuisance. The majority of buyers are fine, but some of the bad ones really leave an...
That’s a good way of looking at it. I used to have more items on eBay with best offer, but at one point I mostly stopped using it. The big reason...
I recognize that there will often be negotiation. What annoys me most are instances like the following examples: (Note: none of these have the...
I don’t know why it’s the case with coins, but it seems to be one of those areas where haggling is expected. With eBay being a big factor, the...

I think there is something to be said with the use of TruViews. Quite a few that I have looked at appear to make the coin look higher than the...
MS 65...a few too many stray marks on both sides to be higher
Now: $335 Then: $295
MS 66 ...TruViews can be iffy as I’ve seen some that do a good job of minimizing the contact marks....I’m assuming this one is accurate and this...
Floor is open...
@Pickin and Grinin what did you think about your Kennedy (star worthy)? If anyone else wants to comment on it, please find the picture on page 30...

Separate names with a comma.
