<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BooksB4Coins, post: 1533679, member: 36230&quot;]Look up how the red book comes up with their listed values, and you will see that other than for metal prices, the problem has little (if anything) to do with being &quot;outdated&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for the CDN (graysheet), if you are going to use it as your reference, don&#039;t automatically expect every dealer to sell every listed type at or even near ask. For averages examples listed in the weekly, or even monthly editions, it&#039;s a good ballpark reference, but once you get into some of the quarterly supplement coins, it&#039;s even more important to know the market for whichever series (if any) interests you. With certain coins, expecting to be able to buy decent, problem-free material at ask would be an exercise in futility.</p><p><br /></p><p>Point is that all price guides are just that.... guides. Take from them what you can, and use them to your advantage, but don&#039;t use them as the deciding factor in if you&#039;re getting a &quot;good deal&quot; or not. It is also worth noting that many who place great importance on getting a deal, especially without truly knowing what they are doing, often lose in the end. A low price is not everything.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
