[QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 2540841, member: 27832"]To all those gathering their pitchforks and lighting their torches: No, you're not likely to get rich buying from Littleton and selling to local coin shops. Yes, Littleton has high prices. However, everyone I've heard here seems to agree that Littleton grades fairly (even conservatively), and that they ship exactly what they advertise. And, as others here have pointed out, that farmer may well have been buying during the 2011 frenzy. Heck, [B]I[/B] bought an ASE or two north of $40 in that time frame, and some silver halves at $15 or more, and I'm a terrible cheapskate who pounces on underpriced stuff on eBay (and, in those days, Craigslist). If you think Littleton is [I]currently[/I] overcharging threefold or more for common coins, you ought to be able to link to some offers. I don't think they're especially secretive about their prices. Would I send someone to them to buy? No. But are they evil and rapacious? Not in my opinion.[/QUOTE]
