<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Troodon, post: 26048428, member: 4626&quot;]Ebay is still a convenient place to buy coins... but be careful, and I wouldn&#039;t go there for coins of significant value where it&#039;s too easy to sneak a fake in.&nbsp; If it&#039;s modern coins in their original government packaging, coins of relatively low value, or coins certified by reputable TPGs, I&#039;m not too worried I&#039;ll get something fake.&nbsp; Otherwise... I just steer clear and will visit one of my local coin stores that I know are staffed by honest and knowledgeable people (unless it&#039;s a seller with a great reputation, known to be knowledgeable and honest.&nbsp; There are quite a few, but know who you&#039;re buying from).</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s a common saying that you&#039;ll save thousands of dollars if you make friends with an honest mechanic.&nbsp; I would say you should expand that to include an honest coin dealer if you&#039;re going to invest a lot in this hobby.</p><p><br /></p><p>Coveat Emptor.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
