<p>[QUOTE="Hiddendragon, post: 7914309, member: 25270"]I ended up visiting a shop on Friday that I had been to once before years ago, but at that time I was at a different stage in my collecting. This place had a lot of cool stuff, but the big drawback was that they know what it's all worth. The guy running it was pretty old but he really knew his stuff. Like he knew key dates for everything off the top of his head. I could see I wasn't going to get any steals here. He did say he was giving me much lower prices than the book price and for a lot of it I think that's true, so I can't complain too much. I got a lot of things I never see elsewhere and I'll probably go back. What I didn't like though is he had to give me a price on everything so I never knew what it would cost upfront. With a lot of coins I will buy them or not depending on the price. My favorite is when they price them off the top of their heads because it tends to be lower than the real value. I hate when they look stuff up.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
