[QUOTE="EyeEatWheaties, post: 1078054, member: 26972"]When averaging. the general rule is to throw out the highs and lows. Now with that said.. still.... In the last 2 days I have looked up 20+ coins TT vs eBay and the results are consistently the same 20-25% less on eBay. I can search for sales of "monster toned" or any other key word that occurs frequently in titles on eBay, but can't do that on TT. I have scoured the data for anomalies and found little to nothing that skews the results. Cleaned is the most frequent word in eBay titles that drops the value. Both TT and eBay have links back to the auctions to check those highs and lows. Frankly, they are fairly consistent ranges, even more so when you throw the highs and lows. Now I should add, interestingly enough... that I found certain sellers appear at the top of the list for getting more for the same coin on eBay. I attribute that to larger following of loyal buyers. GSC is top of that list.[/QUOTE]
