<p>[QUOTE="Chuck_A, post: 4153580, member: 104486"]The lure of a fast dollar outweighs the necessity of acedmic research. Who in today's world is willing to take the time to make the effort? The CPG, You Tube and many other false resources are far to easy to justify a new collectors decision making process and an exodus to ebay follows. New members on CT do not always get the "welcome wagon" and quickly give up some of them are defiant in listening to experienced experts and only are interested in the money. A quick buck, counterfeited coins and tpg holders are like a cancer in the hobby and will not end anytime soon. I have many hobbies and interests, numismatics is by far the worst to avoid being taken advantage of by fraudulent people, by far![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
