[QUOTE="ronnie58, post: 2965699, member: 90698"]There is something fishy about the site despite its sharp look. Prices are way too low in many cases. A 1798 VG08 2nd Hair Style Large Cent sold last night for $220 on David Kahn's eBay store, from which quality stock moves at good prices (PCGS is $275). This GFO place claims they'll send it to you for $82. Another weird thing: I checked out dozens of online retailers when returning to collecting last March, and never encountered one that claims to have available almost every known U.S. coin in every grade. If they are for real they are a coin wholesaler, but even then the prices look suspect to me. They do claim to be a source for 'hundreds of eBay sellers'. But probably best to use the rule " If it looks too good to be true it probably is" when finding such deals.[/QUOTE]
