<p>[QUOTE=&quot;hontonai, post: 659127, member: 4703&quot;]Over the years I&#039;ve bought many coins on eBay, at prices from &lt;$1 to &gt;$5,000.&nbsp; My very few bad experiences all involved transactions under $20.</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course I only buy from sellers with clear photos, decent return policies, no ridiculous hype, not on my personal &quot;bad seller list&quot;, and Toolhaus records that may not be perfect, but are acceptable after careful analysis.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have lists of sellers I won&#039;t consider dealing with, and sellers I&#039;ve had good experiences with, both of which I try to maintain as information comes my way. </p><p><br /></p><p>Probably my best deal overall is the one a few months ago, where I obtained a Meiji 6 (1873) bronze 2 sen in F/XF condition from Singapore to complete my 2 sen collection.&nbsp; I paid quite a bit under the Krause and JNDA catalog values, possibly in part due to other bidders&#039; fear of the source.</p><p><br /></p><p>The pictures were excellent, and clear enough to carefully compare with coins in my collection already known to be genuine.&nbsp; Right now it&#039;s on its way back from NGC, with its genuineness confirmed.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
