<p>[QUOTE="keemao, post: 24610061, member: 43972"]Most of the notes I can handle and look at but sometimes you just never know. Usually repairs and other defects are noted in the listing. I have been buying from this particular auction, the only big one in Thailand, for several years. I once bought an error note in the auction that PMG would not grade and the person, who I have known for years, that has been doing the auctions for 20+ years bought it back from me so I only lost the grading fee. But sometimes it's a chance you take that no matter how hard you look at a note, me not being a grader, I may not spot where a repair has been done. I use a flourescent light to look for erasures and other things on the notes and do my best to look for problems to help me decide whether to bid or not. This was the first time I got any notes that did not have repairs listed so I will just have to be more careful in August at the next auction. I had a large Thai coin collection but have been selling it off in the auctions there as I am concentrating on the older currency now.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
