<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 1866215, member: 19463&quot;]Patient tightwad here.&nbsp; My Philip tetradrachm was bought in January 2014.&nbsp; It is worth more than my $51 but not $200 (remember these guys charge buyer&#039;s premium and registered postage).&nbsp; In this case the dealer is a major auction house of CNG level and should get prices more than I will pay.&nbsp; I don&#039;t buy much from from such dealers because I only have so much to spend and they charge more than other sources.&nbsp;&nbsp; The prices I see here are beyond reasonable.&nbsp;&nbsp; If you are going to get exceptional prices you better have exceptional coins and exceptional scholarship.&nbsp; If I get the idea that I know as much as a dealer (correct or not), I&#039;ll cut back on how much I buy from them.&nbsp; About 10% of my collection came from top flight dealers.&nbsp;&nbsp; My last purchase from one was in 2010 (except for some books).&nbsp; They don&#039;t need my business; they have plenty of rich people who don&#039;t care.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
