<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rhoggman, post: 419872, member: 13987&quot;]I totally agree that someone can overvalue and item, and overpay for an item, but I am not talking about the exceptions. There are esablished prices, and fair market values for used cars, just like there are for graded coins. If you grossly overpay for something it is your loss, and the seller&#039;s gain. </p><p><br /></p><p>The point I am making is graded coins coins can carry a premium and do carry a premium over raw coins &quot;in general&quot;.&nbsp; These prices are accepted by the market, otherwise the prices would not be achieved.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now having said that I also do not believe that paying &quot;slabbed&quot; prices for a aw coin is out of the question if it is properly graded.</p><p><br /></p><p>Uneducated buyers are usually going to get the raw end of the deal regardless of how they are purchasing their coins. Case in point.... 1883 O Morgan thread... Guess who gets the raw end of the deal? ME! However it is graded by PCGS, so would you rather own that coin the way I do, or in a 2x2????[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
