<p>[QUOTE="Vess1, post: 1377036, member: 13650"]It depends on the coin, the price on the holder and the demeanor of the seller for me. Sometimes the price on the holder seems reasonable.

I tend to look at a coin closely and then I let the seller know I am "interested in it" and hand it to them. Without saying anything more, they usually take it, look at it, look it up and shoot a new price that is lower than what's on the holder without asking. Many times it's considerably lower. This is pretty common at most shows Ive been to.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
