<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vess1, post: 24634576, member: 13650&quot;]If you notice on NGC&#039;s price guide, they list dates last updated underneath the coin on each row now.&nbsp; &nbsp; Some are within the week, some haven&#039;t been updated in years.&nbsp; Values can change drastically depending on what&#039;s going on in the world so anything not updated within the past 6 months or less can be way off.&nbsp;&nbsp; PCGS is usually high but I think keep their lists updated decent.&nbsp; At the shows, dealers will look at grey sheet and make you an offer for some small percentage above whats on the grey sheet.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; People can say the price guides are way off but I&#039;m often shocked by how close they really are.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; If it&#039;s listed for 500 at NGC you&#039;re not getting it for 400.&nbsp; &nbsp; I was watching a $5 gold indian the past couple weeks that was listed on NGC at $900 value.&nbsp;&nbsp; The seller wanted $925 shipped.&nbsp; &nbsp; Yesterday the seller sent an offer out to all the watchers for $50 off dropping buy it now price shipped to $875.&nbsp;&nbsp; I was really itching to buy it and was thinking about it all day.&nbsp;&nbsp; When I went back to look at it after I got home, it was sold.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; $25 less than NGCs price guide and the seller lost shipping and fees out of it.&nbsp; But that&#039;s what it cost to acquire it.&nbsp; &nbsp; So the price guide tells you , you&#039;re not getting it for $800, but should be able to get it for somewhere less than $1k.&nbsp; That&#039;s all the guide can do for you.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; A couple years ago, probably could have bought that coin for $700 easily.&nbsp;&nbsp; Not anymore.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
