<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vess1, post: 7396018, member: 13650&quot;]For fun, I&#039;m perusing the auctions tonight just looking at flying eagle cents in low MS range, 3 cents and some seated stuff.&nbsp; &nbsp; Three of the last coins I was checking out I looked up on NGCs price guide and they&#039;re all listed at $100 to $150 above the price guide.&nbsp; &nbsp; If you&#039;re looking at nicer stuff, this is very much the norm and more often than not.&nbsp; &nbsp; Rarely ever see make an offer as an option.&nbsp;&nbsp; Half dime I wanted was $55 over.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; They&#039;re pricing in fees and whatever other costs.&nbsp; Most of the time I know if I was at a show with that coin in front of me it could probably be had for&nbsp; not tens, but hundreds less and I&#039;ve done it.&nbsp;&nbsp; Ebay is an expensive place to chase graded stuff.&nbsp; &nbsp; May be the only place you can find what you&#039;re looking for though.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; I doubt I could find a type II 3 cent silver in a hundred mile radius around me in any grade.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; I never realized the commemoratives were that hot in the past.&nbsp; They are cool and the early ones don&#039;t have very high mintages.&nbsp; I do collect commems I like but I don&#039;t attempt to chase them all.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
