<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jolumoga, post: 1828624, member: 41780&quot;]I believe over 90% of coin collectors view cherry-picking as acceptable.&nbsp; Personally, I think without cherry-picking much of the thrill in the hobby is taken away.&nbsp; Why is it not acceptable to gain, in a free market, in a transaction due to superior knowledge?&nbsp; Who decides what prices are just?&nbsp; As market bubbles have shown, markets are not rational, and even if a buyer pays only a fraction of the price for an investment the buyer is still taking a risk with his money.&nbsp; There is no objective &quot;price&quot; at which items should sell at any particular time (this is a tangent, though).&nbsp; On an ethical level, shouldn&#039;t businesses that are too lazy to research their own merchandise be punished?&nbsp; The idea that oral or written contracts can be negated because someone did not do proper research beforehand is ludicrous. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>But again, I&#039;m speaking to the choir composed of 90%+ of collectors. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
