<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1590533, member: 26302&quot;]I hear what you are saying, but also understand what Doug is saying. I have similar coins I buy. Some coins I buy I can get cheapest on Ebay, but others Ebay is the most expensive source for them. Its part of the education on how and where to buy. Just because someone pays $1000 for something on Ebay, (or Littleton or HSN), does not mean they would ever hope to recover that if they sold their collection to a dealer or a traditional auction. Same is true if I buy a coin from a Triton auction, I have to realize part of that money is gone forever, since its extremely common for buyers to overpay in such sales.</p><p><br /></p><p>Taking all of this in, I simply try to base a &quot;value&quot; on the lowest easily identifiable, worldwide exchange of coins. If these coins are going cheapest on Ebay, or dealer to dealer, or in auctions, whichever has some volume I will use as my personal base price for the item.</p><p><br /></p><p>I hope that makes sense.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
