<p>[QUOTE="KSorbo, post: 2852488, member: 56370"]I'm sensing a lot of black and white thinking in regards to "knowledgeable" vs. "unknowledgeable" buyers, and paying "what the coin is worth" vs. "more than the coin is worth". Has anyone considered that even a buyer with a lot of knowledge might be willing to "overpay" for a coin because they like it and don't care that much?</p><p><br /></p><p>As for what my coins are worth, they are worth what people are most likely (thus excluding outliers) to pay for them on eBay because that is the only realistic venue for me other than selling to a dealer. I don't really care about their level of knowledge. All I can do is take good photos of the coin and describe it accurately, to give them knowledge about what I am selling. And when I get the money, the last time I checked PayPal didn't deduct any fees after giving a knowledge quiz to the buyer.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
