<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MNcollector, post: 363731, member: 13565&quot;]It&#039;s basic supply and demand.&nbsp; If there are more collectors today (as we all know there are) than there were 25 years ago, the prices are going to go up.&nbsp; Add that on top of the fact than many people do still have a large amount of disposable income (despite all the gloom and doom the news reports about) to spend on things like this and that&#039;s where you get your inflated prices.&nbsp; I know it sucks, but at the same time many people on here are taking advantage of this same phenomenon by selling lower grade coins in their collections for a premium and replacing them with higher grade coins.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>As for not getting the coins because we know their &quot;real value&quot;, that&#039;s a flawed statement.&nbsp; The real value is exactly the face value + the premium a collector is willing to pay to have that coin.&nbsp; If that&#039;s $50 more than you think its worth...well then you underestimated its value compared to another buyer.&nbsp; As long as they are willing to pay the higher prices, they will continue to get the coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
