<p>[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 1489319, member: 15309"]Which experienced collectors told you that? E-Bay is saturated with pitfalls but there are thousands of people who sell coins on E-Bay. Believe it or not, some of them are actually very knowledgable and professional sellers who offer fantastic coins. Once you identify these sellers, you can add them to your favorites list and become a loyal customer. If you collect toned Franklins, Greattoning and Kryptonitecomics should already be on that list. Both offer high quality rainbow toned coins in a no reserve auction format. Shane's photos are outstanding while Richard's could use some improvement. Both have very loyal customer bases and you will not win an auction cheaply. That is why people consign coins to them.</p><p><br /></p><p>My advice is to avoid throwing the baby out with the bath water. E-Bay can be a great place to obtain coins if you have the requisite knowledge to avoid the pitfalls. I buy most of my cheaper coins (less than $200) on E-Bay and most of my big ticket items (more than $500) come from Heritage. I will search absolutely anywhere to find a coin that suits my collection.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
