[QUOTE="ddddd, post: 3635485, member: 22377"]Have you ever posted a photo on a forum and have someone make you an offer that is too good to refuse? That has been the case with a few of my coins. I posted some of these just to share and then was surprised by an unexpected offer. My most fortunate case was one that came back for basically the same price as I had originally paid (lucky auction win). Some have not come back, but I would certainly consider them again (even at a higher price than my original cost; although likely lower than what I sold them for). As I’m transitioning towards a [USER=10461]@lordmarcovan[/USER] style box of 20 collection, it’s actually not that unusual that I would repurchase something that was worthy of a spot but was sold to help bring in something else. The box of 20 is a fluid collection. So even if I sold something before, it could easily come back and work just as well in my collection as before. The reselling angle has also been a reason for some of the coins that were reacquired. Sometimes a seller has a bad eBay photo of a coin I used to own and that gives me an advantage in the bidding (and eventual sale; although some have been much harder to sell the second time around).[/QUOTE]
