<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Greyford, post: 424856, member: 15150&quot;]The most important thing is to HAVE FUN!!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I have picked up reference materials at really insane prices at coin shows. Also look for supplys like loops, 2 X 2, and 2x2 boxes. If your going to buy a coin from that dealers ask if he can throw in a loop. I have a 2 sided 10X 20X loop I got for free and I bought the ANA grading book for $3 at a show. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Talk to all the dealers. Tell them what you are interested in. I have only been collecting for 2 years and I have dealers come up to me when I go to a show and whisper in my ear &quot;come see what I saved for you.&quot; I&#039;m not a big spender, I have never spent more than $50.00 for a coin so I&#039;m not a big spender.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Set a spending level and stick to it. Don&#039;t buy the 1st coin. Look at every booth. Try to get a greysheet, you wont pay those prices but you shouldn&#039;t pay much more than those prices. Do negotiate with the dealers but also leave some room above the greysheet.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
