I&#039;m counting every little thing such as buying 2x2&#039;s to transportation costs, and by profits I do mean after auction and shipping fees. I am going to publish my results at the beginning of next year, here on CoinTalk.&nbsp; &nbsp; </span></p><p><br /></p><p>5) What is the best advice that you can give to a new collector?</p><p><br /></p><p><span style="color: #808000">&nbsp; Study Long and Hard Before you blow too much money into this hobby, read the quote that I use for my signature!:thumb:&nbsp; </span>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
