<p>[QUOTE="KevinM, post: 2901093, member: 83484"]I bid on rifles online got to be near mint anymore.I place a bid I feel is comfortable w/auction fee's should be fairly well below market price then I go eat dinner forget about it.I have won 5 in the last 2 1/2 years(one from Jerry Kuhnhausen collection) some pretty old with hardly a shot fired through them.My luck with Morgan Dollars is not so good by the time I pay fee's then if graded I end up a lot of times 10-20% above the values of PCGS/NGC but way under if I need to resell if needed to the LCS(greybook) like 50% sometimes.So I backed off the auction houses in the last year but if I decide to get back into it it will be ungraded coins and I am not sending them off to be graded unless it's a real deal.Coin collecting is a hobby not a money making venture for a bloke like me that was my mistake.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
