Message:: [QUOTE="HULLCOINS, post: 1068656, member: 25197"]Recently started paper money collecting before buying the book!!!! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie9" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Worried that I didn't do the homework... well now that the book has come; how realistic are the prices in A Guide Book to US Paper Money? It seems to me that the paper money certified is selling for significantly more than the book values. For instance the note in the link sold for 216.50 with shipping and the book lists this note at $125. <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rt=nc&nma=true&item=260708626329&si=G3mQTqd0Rxd1eQFHqOCUdXTjcg0%253D&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEDWX%3AIT#ht_11412wt_1141" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rt=nc&nma=true&item=260708626329&si=G3mQTqd0Rxd1eQFHqOCUdXTjcg0%253D&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEDWX%3AIT#ht_11412wt_1141" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rt=nc&nma=true&item=260708626329&si=G3mQTqd0Rxd1eQFHqOCUdXTjcg0%253D&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEDWX%3AIT#ht_11412wt_1141</a>What is the reasoning for this? I every sold note I have looked at has sold for more than the "Red Book" price.[/QUOTE]
