<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jody526, post: 7874, member: 578&quot;]I have no doubt, that Nick is an honest dealer and Ebay seller, but that doesn&#039;t mean that people aren&#039;t going to bid too high on his auctions.</p><p>The same goes for all the honest eBay sellers out there. They have no control over clueless buyers, or folks that get caught up in a bidding war.</p><p>Now I&#039;ve said this before, and i&quot;ll say it again; if you are a new collector, or if you are not VERY familiar with all the aspects of how eBay works, then you need to stay as far away from eBay as you can get.</p><p>A new collector should first learn as much as possible about the coins that he/she is interested in collecting.</p><p>Then when they&#039;re ready to start buying a few coins, they should try to establish a relationship with a reputable dealer. This can take time, and some trial and error can be involved, therefor it is wise to start out by buying inexpensive coins.</p><p>Once the new collector has found a dealer that meets their needs, they should stick with that dealer. (Actually they may be able to find several dealers that they can work with)</p><p>Only after much knowledge in numismatics is under their belt, should a collector look to eBay for bargains. </p><p>The bottom line is, a new collector is going to have to pay some dues, one way, or another. They can either do it the smart way, or they can do it the eBay way.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
