<p>[QUOTE="LostDutchman, post: 1338739, member: 16994"]Personally I have been known to sell at public auction from time to time exactly for the reasons people have mentioned above. Sometimes people will pay full market... or above for coins. There also have been instances however where some items bring FAR less then wholesale at the same auction. It's really tricky. </p><p><br /></p><p>Personally.. and this is just my personal opinion... I'd mind my own business... If they want to be uneducated and spend their money foolishly it's not my place to approach them about it. However if they happened to strike up a conversation with me... and we happened to get on the subject... I would probably take that opportunity to try to figure out why they are paying so much...and try to point them in the right direction, but other then that I'd just let it be.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
