<p>[QUOTE="mikem2000, post: 1459677, member: 30574"]I do have some lower priced coins, but I usually spend between $500-$2000 per coin. With that being said, I do not buy many coins. I keep my collection small and high quality, but it does add up over the years. As my collections grows, I sell off the lesser pieces, and try upgrade to better stuff.</p><p><br /></p><p>I do not collect sets, so I never have the need to fill a hole. I don't even collect specific series. I look for coins I like at a reasonable price. Since I don't buy many coins, it gives me a long time to Be patient, do my DD, and pull the trigger when all looks good. </p><p><br /></p><p>This method is not for everyone, but it works for me</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, as a side note, even with all this work, I still think I may have gotten hosed on the price side of my last purchase. I have been looking a year for a MPL, and I pulled the trigger on one last week. It didn't arrive yet, but I am now having concerns. When I get it I am going to post it and ask for opinions. Better to learn now, than repeat mistakes <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Mike[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
