<p>[QUOTE=&quot;satootoko, post: 57604, member: 669&quot;]Generally you will find coins being sold by two types of people at flea markets - those who know nothing about coins, and pick their prices out of thin air; and those who are scam artists with everything way overpriced, so they can be bargained down to just two or three times what they are worth.&nbsp; Both groups can have counterfeit/forgeries for sale, the difference being that the first group doesn&#039;t know that&#039;s what they have.</p><p><br /></p><p>The only way to separate the underpriced from the overpriced and fake in the first group is the same way you can spot the second group and avoid them:&nbsp; KNOWLEDGE!</p><p><br /></p><p>Personally, I would never buy a coin at a flea market unless it was one that I felt comfortable with my own knowledge about its genuineness and grade.&nbsp; IMHO any other approach is simply gambling, and I prefer to do that in a casino where I can control the size of my losses. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
