[QUOTE="mnmvick, post: 676840, member: 15626"][b]Pricing for Graded Coins, at least.[/b] I agree that the risk of buying non-graded coins from eBay has gone WAY up in the last half decade. And, like others, I rarely buy non-graded coins on eBay anymore. The biggest issue left is that valuing those prices is a bit tough too. I use [URL="http://www.shoeboxcoins.com"]www.shoeboxcoins.com[/URL] for this - they trend the prices of NGC and PCGS coins and you can see graphs of this data. There is a link to a report on the examples page. For me - more of an armchair collector - I just can't keep track of what a certain coin is worth over time. Just not into the knowledge as much as I could be - but MAN - I do LOVE owning these gorgeous pieces of history, you know it? I also have to agree with some coins going WAY over value on eBay, but yet - I don't think I could bare with selling one of my pieces. We need to get over that as collectors, and allow our coins to be sold high and then later we buy low. Might as well get some coins into our collection at no cost, you know it?[/QUOTE]
