[QUOTE="The_Cave_Troll, post: 306367, member: 1674"]What I don't understand is why I never get anyone calling me saying "the PCGS price guide says that such and such a coin is worth xxx do you have one available for that price?", but I routinely get people calling me trying to sell their garbage (modern high grade dis-reputable slabs) who get upset when I won't pay anywhere near PCGS price guide values. This is a constant frustration! by the way, to answer the poll I use the auction results of the major houses, the sheets (grey, blue, trends, numismedia), CCE, and recently sold coins, but if you have one rare coin ($5000-$10,000 or more) then auction results are the most useful single thing.
