<p>[QUOTE=&quot;19Lyds, post: 1544469, member: 15929&quot;]Littleton is no different than any other Mail Order firm. Most folks that do purchase their products no nothing about coins (or their prices) and don&#039;t really want to know other than filling some hole in some album.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve seen these folks at literally EVERY coin show I&#039;ve ever attended.</p><p><br /></p><p>Buyer: Got any 2002 Proof Sets?</p><p>Dealer: Sure do. How many do you want?</p><p>Buyer: Just one to complete my collection. How much? (without even looking at the set which was dropped in front of them)</p><p>Dealer: $15.95</p><p>Buyer: Fine. I&#039;ll take it!</p><p><br /></p><p>A LOT of folks that collect coins don&#039;t really look at what they are collecting. They&#039;re just filling some void and at some point in time, when it comes time to sell, they&#039;ll never remember what they paid for what they have because they don&#039;t keep records and don&#039;t care to. They are simply casual coin collectors that amass small hoards of coins at outrageous prices.</p><p><br /></p><p>Do I fault Littleton for their business model? Not at all. They&#039;ve been in business for a very long time and have many happy, satisfied customers.</p><p><br /></p><p>Would I buy from Littleton? No. Simply because I know that with a little bit of effort, I can buy what they are selling and get it at a fairly steep discount from their asking prices.</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s all about what you know and where you go.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
