<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Restitutor, post: 4516795, member: 112621&quot;]Hi Mike,</p><p><br /></p><p>I would also agree with other posters here in that the lower opening bid is a very nice feature and would not want to see that changed.</p><p><br /></p><p>Regarding estimates: As a very, very new coin collector who has not yet built up an impressive library of knowledge on coin valuations, estimates are very important for me. Estimates that are too low will at times scare me away from bidding. Estimates that are “too high”... I probably couldn’t afford the coin anyways <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie10" alt=":oops:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> In an example I mentioned in the other thread, a Titus coin going for $1,300 on a $300 estimate is an immediate no-go for me. Had the estimate been $1,000 or even $750, I may have considered placing a bid. Again though I emphasize that as a very new collector this may not be an issue for those with more experience. </p><p><br /></p><p>Even if this current market is temporary and things go back to more “normal” levels even in the next couple of months, I wouldn’t think it necessarily a bad thing to revise estimates in line with the current market... just my 2 cents! </p><p><br /></p><p>I appreciate you taking the time to talk with us! </p><p><br /></p><p>-Luke[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
