[QUOTE="ToughCOINS, post: 2002816, member: 20480"]Odds are that, if you recall seeing certain coins multiple times, they stood out for a reason. Those coins are likely the targets of your desire. There is probably something special about each of them which separates them from the crowd. It is likely that, for the very same reason, the sellers of those coins have them priced at a level which gives you pause. It is natural that a dealer will price higher that coin which is harder to replace than that which is not. It is entirely likely that not-so-special coins of the same dates which you do not recall seeing may still be there as well, or they may already have sold at lesser prices. I know it seems crazy that the same coins have been listed for months on end, but consider the dealer's perspective for a moment. Many dealers have seen the same amount of interest in that certain coin . . . say 6 or 8 watchers . . . for the past 3 months, yet the coin has not sold. Is that so unlike your experience? No, it is both the buyer and the seller wanting to transact that coin, but not reaching out to each other to find a way to make the deal work . . . it's really that simple. Good luck to you in your pursuits . . . - Mike[/QUOTE]
