Again its knowledge. Want a 3 pound package of good processed cheese? I can show you where to get it for $7.20, 11.45, and 15.85. Exact same package. Same with coins. I bought my avatar after going through dozens of copies over the years. Worst coins than mine are currently listed for $2500-3500 more than I paid a couple of months ago. Its all about knowledge.</p><p><br /></p><p>Those who buy on tv lack the knowledge to buy it less expensive. But, like [USER=76863]@baseball21[/USER] said, the tv people have high production costs. Its not immoral to charge what they charge, just like its not immoral for that store today to charge $15.85 for the same package of cheese I can show you where to buy for $7.20. Knowledge and willingness to seek out knowledge allows some to get better deals. Always has been in capitalism, and always will be. Different markets. Don't like it? Put down the tv remote, get off your rear, and learn a better way. Its not as convenient, but that is their choice, right?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
