[QUOTE="Richard01, post: 57100, member: 2700"]I have noticed this seller over the last half year with about 4 of these huge 'estates' that sell for 50 to 60k. At first glance, they seem like real treasures, with tens of thousands of coins, including great cert coins, and all sorts of art, gems, etc. But... I can find 4 auctions that seem to be about the same stuff... the same big pile of lose gemstones, the same huge pile of old silver, the same misc art items (Picaso prints, other famous names). Is it just me, or does it stretch the imagination that there could be several similar collections? Is the term 'estate' here just a gimmick for a really interesting collection of stuff to be put together and auctioned off above the retail? Take a look, I'd be curious if anyone has an opinion (heck, just go to ebay lots and sort by highest price and this one will come up first). Is it even remotely possible this is real and someone is going to come out ahead?[/QUOTE]
