[QUOTE="kanga, post: 774846, member: 9270"]I buy on eBay when the correct coin gets listed. "Correct" coin for me means: - issue/date/mm/grade that I need for my collection (no impulse buying) - slabbed by PCGS or NGC (I do NGC Registry Sets so this is necessary) - correct price (my max bid is about halfway between the greysheet and [I]Coin Values[/I] values) - seller has feedback that demonstrates reliability (enough feedbacks [50+] with a high rating [98+%]). And other indicators such as no excessive difficulties recently (if so, then I have to review each bad f/b individually and try to read between the lines). - if I'm waivering about whether to bid, [B]I JUST SAY "NO"![/B] I see lots of good coins on eBay but 80-90% of the time the bidding blows pass my max. I just say, "I pass. Maybe next time the price will be correct for me".[/QUOTE]
