[QUOTE="ESSF, post: 8404984, member: 139256"]"Asking for super-high prices is not a problem (except for the sellers that can't get buyers). And the solution for buyers is to check eBay's Sold items. That's where a reasonable measure of market value is." In my case, this is not an option. I collect mostly early small size star notes, and many of the FRN stars from 1928 to 1934D have populations of less than ten, some less than five, and others fewer than that. The key is to educate yourself on the rarity of each note. [ATTACH=full]1491083[/ATTACH] I paid well over $1000 (closer to $1500) for this note. It sat on eBay for over two years. I know a well respected, longtime collector, that has a F/VF in his collection, and PMG lists an EF40. Both that long time collector (he has collected for 45 years), and me, cannot come up with more that three known of the note above. Never mind eBay, Heritage has never sold one, going all the way back to 1990 !![/QUOTE]
