<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 677476, member: 19065&quot;]I definitely agree that you can find the raw examples of these for less if you watch and wait, esp if you want the original box and COA. You might even get slabbed coins off eBay auctions for better prices than the those on TT that I dug up for you.</p><p><br /></p><p>I personally avoid buying coins on eBay, raw or slabbed. It&#039;s just too much work and worry to deal with anymore. I am willing to pay the premiums that TT and HA type auction houses add to the final price for the professionalism and guarantee behind their coins. I don&#039;t want to pay a lot of premium, so it&#039;s hard to win auctions on those sites sometimes when you bid low. These premiums also do not bother me since I buy this kind of coin, MS or PR, slabbed for aesthetic and/or collector reasons. </p><p><br /></p><p>I prefer to deal with raw bullion from bullion dealers, again, not eBay, and am willing to pay the extra over spot due to the service and guarantees provided by those dealers. If they are selling commems as raw bullion, I&#039;d feel more confident buying those or the standard ASEs, AGEs, etc. from such dealers.</p><p><br /></p><p>just some of my thoughts...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
