<p>[QUOTE=&quot;silver surfer, post: 159858, member: 3235&quot;]Lately I’ve noticed the venders at the flea market (some) are asking outrageous prices for coins &amp; currency.</p><p>This past Sunday one gentleman wanted $30 for a 1964 proof set, more than double the current value,</p><p>&nbsp;And this guy </p><p>&nbsp;Has had these sets sitting in his display case for at least several months.</p><p>Another vender was selling a well worn (fine at best) $1 Hawaii note for $150,outragous.</p><p>I told him the bill was worth approx $35-$40,he pointed out the low serial # so I conceded it may be worth</p><p>A bit more, but $150 is way out of line.</p><p>&nbsp;I did end up walking away with VF-1935 peace dollar for $15, which seems about right price wise.</p><p>I think these vendors are counting on selling to people who have no knowledge of coins and are making impulse buys.</p><p>Reminds me of Shop at Home[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
