<p>[QUOTE="SuperDave, post: 2403508, member: 1892"]Honestly, when it's <i>participants</i> like you and I - posting members of forums, people who aren't on their first modern Mint issue - who are willingly paying the secondary-market premium, I couldn't care less. It ain't our first rodeo, and if we feel like paying more, that's cool. I'll "overpay" for a coin I like, and don't care what anyone else thinks. My only agenda is the folks who don't know better, responding to Facebook messages and the like, running to the "next big thing." I feel like they need to be protected for the same reason you need to protect children - otherwise they'll hurt themselves. Not to mention the coins then end up in the hands of those who can't appreciate them. If your appreciation is based on the fact that you're going to make a buck or two off them, well, at least you're appreciative. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
