<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Rhino89, post: 1133646, member: 21773&quot;]Yeah, just go back out there and keep hunting <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> I personally get a satisfaction out of hunting down coins and winning them for what I feel is a good price, I hate beating myself up for overpaying in the heat of the moment.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>As far as your missed one goes, good point on the winning bidder bidding more than $306 - if you wanted it that badly, there&#039;s no guarantee that you could have gotten it for anything reasonable. The guy&#039;s bid could have been $310, $320, $350, $400... you just never know. Patience will reward you:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>About 2 years ago I was bidding on an auction for a coin I just HAD to have... I bid $120, thinking there&#039;s no way anyone could top it. Before you know it, I lose to a $150 bid. Got really upset, and was wondering why I didn&#039;t bid higher if I wanted it so much... about 6 months later, I win a small lot of 5 coins from an estate sale for $200, one of which was a coin just like the one I wanted to win 6 months before. After selling off the other 4 for a total of $180, I essentially got to keep my sought-after piece for a mere $20, after you do the math. I held an auction not too long ago with a ridiculous reserve just to see what bidders would be willing to pay for it - went up to $350. Patience is as good as gold...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
