<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 1599204, member: 15309&quot;]I call this a &quot;marketplace availability premium&quot;&nbsp; If the coin you need to complete your collection only hits the market once ever 5 years, it is perfectly acceptable to pay a premium to avoid waiting another 5 years.&nbsp; Believe it or not, I have run into this several times during my search for registry quality Jefferson Nickels.&nbsp; Here is a link to an NGC journal entry I made about my <a href="http://coins.www.collectors-society.com/JournalDetail.aspx?JournalEntryID=8059" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.www.collectors-society.com/JournalDetail.aspx?JournalEntryID=8059" rel="nofollow">1947-S Jefferson Nickel NGC MS67</a> two years ago.</p><p><br /></p><p>@Detecto, I am pretty sure that I gave you my thoughts on this subject in a recent PM.&nbsp; IMO, those who are slaves to the price guides will end up with inferior collections.&nbsp; I have paid a premium in relation to price guide for almost every coin in my collection.&nbsp; What do you think of my collection?&nbsp; Quality is not cheap![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
