Message:: [QUOTE="Billy Kingsley, post: 916499, member: 19456"]I have not had much luck on Ebay. Not that I have gotten junk, I just keep getting outbid! I try to stay off ebay though because I don't have enough money to look around on there. It's not hard to me to find things I want....it IS hard to pay for them! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> I have purchased two coins on ebay, a 1914 D quarter and a 1929 cent.  If I had known of Arizona Jack's existance at the time I bought the cent, I would have bought it from him instead, as I could have gotten a higer grade at a lower price than I paid. At that time though I had never heard of him, so I paid a little more. It's no big deal because it cost me only about $8, with the shipping (which cost more than the coin).  And, oddly enough, earlier this year I got a 1929 in a roll that was better than the one I bought. EDIT: My biggest problem with ebay however has been not being able to find some of the obscure world coinage I have been looking for. Some of the stuff I want to add to my collection is modern stuff, and the book value on some of them is below 50 cents even in uncirculated condition. I think the people who have them don't think they are worth listing (ebay or traditional sellers!) so they are very hard to find.[/QUOTE]
