<p>[QUOTE="harley bissell, post: 2979042, member: 88212"]Deep dark conspiracies are rare. Sellers want to sell at the lowest possible cost. Selling at a reserve price that guarantees no losses comes with a fee that applies whether you sell or not. Having a friend or relative bid your minimum price serves the same purpose at a lower cost. Rarely would a coin protected from loss be relisted soon after. Most times they are removed for at least several years. Grey Sheet are WHOLESALE dealer to dealer prices. Why do you think anyone would give those prices to a collector? Every month I stomp "joe coin dealer" at the coin club auction. They live and die by grey sheet prices and lose out for one bid over grey sheet prices. Bid what you want for what you want preferably with less than a minute to go and don't mourn the ones that got away. If you want to purchase at the last possible second use a commercially available sniping ap.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
