<p>[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 653202, member: 15309"]I am very confused. What does the buyers premium have anything to do with the value of the coin. When searching auction archives for valuation, you must include the buyer's premium because that is the amount the buyer paid to acquire the coin. You don't get to back out the 15% and say that is the value of the coin. It just doesn't work that way. The total amount paid is the value of the coin regardless of where the money goes after it is paid.</p><p><br /></p><p>The last two PCGS coins both sold for $253 and Numismedia Wholesale is $245. T$ was asking basically retail price for the coin and the guy offers 10% back of bid. The qualifies for lowball in my book, not a negotiating tactic. Having said that, I have seen much worse and T$'s response should have been just to decline the offer. It was lowball but not offensive IMO[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
