<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Insider, post: 2320747, member: 24314&quot;]Yes, and many do; however, from my observations the majority of collectors/small time dealers are not sophisticated enough to do that.&nbsp; Many others get the same quality coin at ANACS/ICG often for less $$$ because they buy the coin not the slab. They don&#039;t care what it will sell for later.&nbsp; I like to hang around a particular TPGS table (as much as possible w/o interfering w/business) and watch what goes on.&nbsp; You would be amazed at the lack of knowledge shown (even from dealers at the show) by people wanting opinions.&nbsp; It is lucky most of us have TPGS&#039;s or the sophisticated numismatists would be &quot;taking everyone&#039;s pants down&quot; buying up &quot;steals&quot; from the ignorant. </p><p><br /></p><p>Remember &quot;Ignorant&quot; means uneducated about a subject like grading, authentication, CT posting &amp; rules (that&#039;s me but just for now) <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
