<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1571427, member: 26302&quot;]Like most things in life, this is great to a degree. It always boils down to &quot;that you can afford&quot; phrase. </p><p><br /></p><p>Let&#039;s think of a millionaire who wants a few representational ancient coins. In this scenario he can spend 5 figures per coin. Now, what about a guy who loves ancients, wished to collect the myriad of varieties of late romans, but is on a budget. To say he can afford $240 a year so therefor should buy one ultra high grade late roman per year does him a grave disservice. He wishes to own a large variety of coins, and therefor if he buys good quality at $20 per can start to assemble a good collection in a few years, whereas if he spend $240 per coin it will take him decades to perform the same action.</p><p><br /></p><p>Like I said sir, I agree &quot;to a degree&quot;. If you are talking about spending $5 more to buy a VF versus a F, I agree wholeheartedly. You will always appreciate a VF more than a F. I just find too many collectors take this worthy advice to an extreme. </p><p><br /></p><p>Then again, maybe I am just a hoarder and like volume. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
