<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cladking, post: 1408047, member: 68&quot;]I don&#039;t believe they really do anything shady.&nbsp; I wouldn&#039;t advise anyone except beginning collectors to buy from them because their prices aren&#039;t low and they do a lot of &quot;value added&quot; stuff that collectors should do themselves.&nbsp; Perhaps they should do more to explain what &quot;approvals&quot; are and this is a sore spot with me.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>But when it comes to buying they are among the best.&nbsp; They don&#039;t want everything and they are very picky but they pay very strong prices for what they buy.&nbsp; The TV shows approach unethical sometimes (mostly with their claims) but Littleton mostly stays well away from the line.&nbsp; I think they do the hobby a great deal of good.&nbsp; Most of the harm they do is burying the unwary and ill informed in coins they don&#039;t want and at priced significantly higher than they can be obtained elsewhere.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Many of their customers go on to become advanced collectors and most get fair value for their money.&nbsp; Does it really matter if someone pays $29.95 for a complete set of circulating SBA&#039;s for example? The set wholesales around $15 and nobody&#039;s going to&nbsp; go bust paying the little extra for the convenience of getting the whole set at once and a cheap folder to hold them.&nbsp; The coins will be nice and if you get them yourself a couple wouldn&#039;t be nice unless you cherry picked a little. They do a good job so the coins aren&#039;t going to be finger-printed or damaged in handling.&nbsp; They are really providing a service so collectors should simply go elsewhere and find coins unless they are desirous of their services.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
