<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ziggy9, post: 947231, member: 8360&quot;]Though I have never bought from Littleton I have owned many coins that were still in the Littleton packaging packaging when bought as part of collections. The coins were always good solid coins that were pretty close to the grade listed (grading is subjective opinion after all).</p><p><br /></p><p>The thing that many people don&#039;t take into consideration is the cost of all that advertizing AND the monetary losses due to items sent out on approval and &quot;lost in the mail&quot; or not returned for whatever reason. If their pricing was the same as an internet or small brick and mortar store then they would go bankrupt in short order.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for the &quot;junk&quot; they sell, I do agree that there is no numismatic value added to a coin that has been colorized or plated, but there are some people that actually LIKE the stuff. Who are we to say they are &quot;damaging the hobby&quot; when they are selling product to people that actually want it?</p><p><br /></p><p>Richard[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
