<p>[QUOTE="jaceravone, post: 392037, member: 9474"]Thanks to everyone for sharing their thoughts. I just wanted to see what the masses thought. This guy is actually a very good guy - a good Christian man. I have known him for several years. Several years ago, he tried to take me under his wing and teach me some stuff. I met with him here or there, but was always too busy to follow up with him and we haven't been able to hook up in some time. He is probably the most knowledgable coin person I know. He used to own his own shop and still has his stock available for purchase. He knows that I like comms and we met up a few times so I could look at his stuff. His items were always high graded comms... the type you would want in your collection, but he always wanted list price. I just never tried to bargin with him because I just wasn't comfortable yet, so I never purchased anything. I have been actively collecting comms again, and find myself paying some good money to acquire raw coins and I figured if I were to go after the good stuff, I should probably buy them already slabbed. But, I just better be prepaired to pay out some cash. On ebay, many times the very nice comms have been selling for over list and I definitely won't do that and the local supply is slim. So I just wanted to see what everyones thoughts were about paying list for very nice certified comms. I know most of you don't collect them, but this is what I am into and I am willing to shell out a little more for the better stuff. Ultimately, what I decide to pay is up to me, but I just wanted to get everyones thoughts. In the end though, I had some stuff come up and I don't think I will be buying much anyway..... except I will pay for shipping when Spock is ready to send me his Oregon Trail for my late birthday gift! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Thanks gang!
