[QUOTE="BooksB4Coins, post: 1823747, member: 36230"]Even if this is true more often than not, it is not fact. There are more than a few non variety infrequently traded coins that the red book is rather low on. It would be much more reasonable to say that “[I]if you use red book prices, especially for more common and readily available material, you are likely to overpay[/I]”. I agree that the red book is generally a poor value reference, but not because it is "[I]outdated[/I]"; the problem comes from how the so-called “[I]values[/I]” are obtained.[/QUOTE]
