<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bluetip84, post: 809499, member: 23028&quot;]Every time I think i have something figured out in this world of collecting I get turned around again. I am still very new to collecting coins myself, most coins I have come from other family members and change. </p><p><br /></p><p>Well i geared myself up today to attempt my first buy from Teletrade, which can be kinda intimidating for a new collector. I found this coin that was really cool that i would love to have. The coin was marked &quot;environmental damage&quot; but&nbsp; UNC details and i thought hey this coin looks great and with the &quot;environmental Damage&quot; i may get it for a price that my shallow pockets could afford. So i slapped in the first bid and my max hit send and was like yea im on my way. LOL this is where it went the other way! Within two minutes my (apparently) minuscule max bid had been replaced by several others and the price of the coin is now siting at $875 <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie104" alt=":yawn:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> .&nbsp; So i guess its back to the drawing board for me.</p><p><br /></p><p>This just struck me as really funny and a good learning experience (you dont ever know anything). I guess with time i will learn better how to evaluate a coins worth. Thanks for reading my funny newb story has anyone else ever had this happen to them?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
