[QUOTE="sylvester, post: 5232, member: 708"]Good job i'm not in it for the money then, i've probably lost more money on coins over the years than i care to admit to, most of that from buying junk when i first started out, other bits from having to sell to dealers. But it doesn't bother me in the slightest, cos i know i would have wasted that money elsewhere where it wouldn't have given me half as much enjoyment, so any money i do lose on a coin when i have to sell it, i just say that was balanced out by the fact that i had the pleasure of owning the coin for as long as i did. When you buy a television you don't expect to sell it for a profit ten years down the line, so why should coins be any different for the average collector? i'm usually happy enough to get back what i paid for it. As you can tell i just love what i do... :D[/QUOTE]
