<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ICollectCoins, post: 766826, member: 17922&quot;]Recently I&#039;ve bought more online than in person, but I really can&#039;t tell you a good reason. I hit the auction sites fairly frequently, and go to about half a dozen coin shows a year. I&#039;ve been in a couple shops recently, who tell me that they are going to give me a great deal, then quote something about 10% higher than I find at the shows. </p><p>Keys to buying online.</p><p>1. Good picture.</p><p>2. Fair return policy.</p><p>3. Good seller rating.</p><p>4. Good communication if you write with questions before the sale...and I always do just to see how well they communicate with me. It also provides me a back-up if there is a problem so that I&#039;ve already documented that I&#039;m trying to communicate openly and honestly and have a specific response to my concerns (if any) before the sale. </p><p>5. If you are on an auction site, bid your maximum shortly before the end of the sale, then don&#039;t go back. Can&#039;t get caught up in the excitement of late bidding if that occurs and spend way too much. Been there...done that...got the okay coin at too high a price.</p><p>Art Haule[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
