<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Numismat, post: 2338791, member: 15019&quot;]I guess it&#039;s not so different from bidding on US lots. Some good ones, some &quot;troll lots&quot; where the seller is trying to make it look worthwhile when they know it&#039;s all junk. Really hit or miss with bulk lots regardless of where the coins are from. It will always take time to hone a sense in order to tip the odds in your favor and learn to spot and avoid troll lots <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>My strategy is to bid what I see as the worst case scenario price based on what I can see in the pics. Usually works out well for me, but some people are sneaky and present potentially good stuff that is actually damaged to worthlessness on the side that is hidden. Some really tricky trollers out there, so anyone doing this has to accept the fact that they will get burned sometimes. The trick is to score more often than you get burned in the long game <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie33" alt=":cigar:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
