Well, let's see... - I'm a little upset over the high price of coins - I'm still trying to figure out what to collect for my...
I've never run across anything like that, even in the places I won't go back to.
The TPGs probably don't want to invest in the storage and bandwidth, but it should be possible for them to put close-up photos of every coin they...

I've been casually looking around at CBHs [because of all of these interesting threads] in my usual spots and I haven't run across a single...

It isn't just you. It's a big time business now, not just a hobby. Ebay and TPGs are both a blessing and curse. I collect mostly circulated...
If you don't want to drive far and don't want to take a chance with Ebay, take a look at www.alaskacoinexchange.com. They have a large selection...
