[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 1842995, member: 15929"]Thanks for the laugh! The reality is that folks who watch these channels (such as the op cough cough) are simply folks with nothing better to do. Maybe they're unemployed and looking for the next big deal? Maybe they just happened across the channel while surfing? Maybe the title caught their eye and given the collection their dad, granddad or whomever, made them think that they'd like to collect coins? Maybe, they don't care if they overpay? Maybe their too lazy or afraid of eBay or coin dealers to actually research what they are buying? But whatever, there is obviously a huge market as these shows continue to show up despite their overpriced and supposedly good investment merchandise! It is a free country and its my choice on whether or not I want to pay $28 for a Silver Eagle or $128 for the same thing in a fancy slab with a serial/certificate number that's in "perfect" condition. Eliminate Free Enterprise and things will definitely come to a screeching halt.[/QUOTE]
