<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1989251, member: 112&quot;]Couple potential problems Vic. 1 - you are assuming that the 2 coins are equal just because the plastic says so. 2 - you are making a comparison between 1 specific dealer at the show and what you found online. 3 - you are assuming that what you paid, $210 was a good price. </p><p><br /></p><p>1 - we all know that no 2 coins, even of the same grade and graded by the same company are equal</p><p><br /></p><p>2 - it is extremely common for dealer A to ask sometimes as much as double what dealer B is asking for the same coin, same grade, same TPG</p><p><br /></p><p>3 - $210 isn&#039;t bad, but the same coin, same grade, same TPG, has sold for less than that 4 times on Heritage (a coin dealer God forbid !) in the last 2 years. Once at the same price.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now you even commented that you were just trying to illustrate the point, I get that. But don&#039;t forget the potential problems, and that is exactly where knowledge comes into play and why it can be so helpful, no matter what venue you are shopping for coins <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
