<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 2026064, member: 26302&quot;]I don&#039;t have a problem with your method at all Paul. My main response would be you acknowledge you went to the effort of educating yourself. That was my main point, education is required. You read books, studied coins, and did it without going to shows and dealers. Yes, this is possible, you are proof sir. However, others can learn by shows and dealers as well. No avenue has a monopoly on knowledge, collectors should choose what works best for them to obtain knowledge. </p><p><br /></p><p>The reason I advocate knowledge instead of only relying on slabs is because what happens when the slabs are faked? When the only thing the collector knows is faked, and they cannot evaluate the coin, they will be worst off than before.</p><p><br /></p><p>Regarding photos, you are a good enough photographer to know no photo is a perfect representation of a coin, some are better than others. However, you emphasize return policies, a wise precaution. </p><p><br /></p><p>I truly do not think most of us are very far apart in our opinions, and hope we will keep the discussions productive.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
