    Man, I hate to hear that but it good that you were able come back. It seems like everytime you HAVE to sell somethng quick, you never get what you would if you had the time to wait.
    Anyway, glad you were able to come back

    I am getting much better at following the philosophy of the "Pawn Stars" show :)
    "It can be the greatest coin out there, but it has to have the right price"
    I make much, much, much, fewer purchases now that I am 2 years plus into collecting, but I have No more buyers remorse, I turn an awesome profit for an amateur hobbyist and the value of what I choose to keep is that much more secure when I buy really low!

    Do you mostly sell graded or un-graded coins for flipping to make a profit. Eventually, I would like to venture into this so I can help support my new hobby. This s a while away but eventually that is what I want to do

    All Raw!!!

    I do 95% Non-U.S. coins, so most pieces I find are raw. I find the right key dates for ten cents - a dollar and they easily go five dollars - thirty Dollars. As I said I am an amateur. I believe U.S. coins are all played out and that the next 10-50 years will be the World Coins playing catch up in popularity. IMHO
    As I stated I am a amateur hobbyist, If I were turning over slabs low to high cutting a profit, I would consider myself adept to professional. As of now it more or less pays for my hobby and gives me a little something extra for my time.
