<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kanga, post: 599188, member: 9270&quot;]The problem for me is not finding bargains.</p><p>It&#039;s finding what I want at realistic prices.</p><p><u>Bullion</u> is hot (I don&#039;t buy bullion).</p><p><u>Rarities</u> are semi-hot (I can&#039;t afford them). They still sell but recent auction results tend to show a softening in rarities. Quite a few 6-figure coins are being bought for less that the previous buying price.</p><p><u>Collector coins</u> are at best tepid. But sellers don&#039;t seem to be recognizing this.</p><p>They are often asking for <b>MORE</b> than <i>Coin Values</i> prices when they might have a hard time getting greysheet.</p><p>I&#039;ve got one coin I <b>REALLY</b> want but I can&#039;t find it at a reasonable price.</p><p>BTW, my definition of a <u>reasonable price</u> is about greysheet plus 60% of the difference between greysheet and <i>Coin Values</i>.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I&#039;ll see how the prices are going at the Baltimore Whitman show in about 2 weeks.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
