In fairness, TT is really a wonderful company to deal with, and I have nothing but good things to say about them on the buy side.&nbsp; As long as you consider carefully what price you are willing to pay for a particular item, and do your homework, there are good coins to be found.&nbsp; I have never consigned with them, but by all accounts they are very good to work with as a consignor too.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
