Message:: [QUOTE="rodeoclown, post: 1334467, member: 34005"]Inspect in person and don't buy raw coins by just judging from pictures then. Because pictures don't give you the details you can see in person. Sometimes it's obvious, sometimes it's not. Like I said above, if you have that fear and you plan to send all coins to get graded, then only buy them in person, not over the internet with pictures. That's the important thing, not feeling guilty. I think it was a fair price actually, as a collector. If you plan to sell it, expect it to go for about the same amount or possibly less, depending on the next person who wants to buy it. I'd say you need to draw a line of what you're gonna put in your personal collection and never sell or what you are seeking out to buy in hopes to sell and make a profit. Like this coin as an example, if you buy every coin like this because "you like it" but you want to turn around and sell it, you're either gonna break even or lose money every time. No pun intended but until you grasp the difference between buying like a dealer or as a collector, let me just say, don't quit your day job. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]
