<p>[QUOTE="Jim Dale, post: 7958453, member: 100459"]I bought many graded coins from ebay. I am familiar with many of the sellers and those that have what I am looking for, and those sellers have it in stock, I will buy from them, even if the price is a little higher. I don't like auctions and have never bought anything from an auction, other than Louis L'Amour books. (I have all of his books, and have several duplicates, bought in a batch.) </p><p>I buy my coins from ebay "BUY IT NOW" options so I know exactly what I have to pay. I may get a better deal through an auction, but I don't like them.</p><p>My contact with ebay started several years ago. It was before the new owners took over and lost the premise that the original owners had set. I bought select MFSL 180 gram LPs from them. I had to bid more than I should have though. I also bought plastic model airplanes from them. I did bid on them and got great deals. But, when ebay changed hands, I quite bidding. I also found the prices were jacked up.</p><p>Back to coins on ebay, I like to buy silver coins and I like to have a set, i.e., I got all the FDR Silver Dimes (1946-1964). I'm working on "Mercury" Dimes (1916-1945) and Washington Silver Quarters (1932-1964). I did get all of the "War Silver Alloy" Nickels (1942-1945), and several others. I like to complete them with NGC coins to that they set together. Many, many of these coins came from ebay, and I never had to return any. Anyway, maybe I need to check out GC, how are their prices compared to ebay. Are they all for bidding?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
