[QUOTE="Stujoe, post: 919, member: 11"]I used to buy off of Ebay a lot and I was really satisfied with the coins I received for the most part.

As I have been in the hobby a while and have made many contacts and have been fortunate enough to mocve to where I have access to local dealers and shows, I rarely buy on Ebay any more. When I do it is almost 100% of the time from someone who I already know outside of Ebay. I have a couple of online dealers who I love buying from but, to me, there is nothing better than buying coins in person. Seeing the coin, holding the coin and dealing with the seller in person is just unbeatable in my book. Edited to add: I have received some bargains on Ebay but I have received better coins for the money from buying in person.[/QUOTE]
