<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Silverhouse, post: 2146221, member: 29452&quot;]I&#039;ve seen dealers ( some ) try to put it to customers on classic coinage as well.&nbsp; I am specifically talking about my own experience.&nbsp; I am putting together a type set and one of my LCS&#039;s I frequent, came up with a coin I&#039;ve been needing.&nbsp; The owner knowing I needed it offered it to me for sale.&nbsp; It was a 1912 D MS 62 Barber 1/2 in an NGC holder.&nbsp; He wanted a thousand bucks for it!&nbsp; I found some on ebay ( recent sales) for around 725 or so.&nbsp; Still a bit expensive but it sure beat his 1000 dollar asking price.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I told told him the price was too high and that ebay was selling it for 275.00 less. </p><p>&quot;Oh you never know what you get on ebay.&quot; Was his answer.&nbsp; I didn&#039;t say anything, but I&#039;d like to try to avoid ebay if possible. Oh, and by the way he does not deal in anything modern, at least not in the last 60 years.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>If a collector is patient, and that is the key, he or she will find the coin they are looking for at just the right price for them.&nbsp; And that&#039;s what has kept me from overpaying.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
