I think you're talking about the other telemarketer whose last name escapes me.  I'm not sure how much are his prices. My point on these guys is this: I recognize they have huge overhead with the TV commercials.  Airtime isn't cheap.  If someone buys 1 or 2 coins from them, gets into the hobby, then finds sites like CT and becomes educated and more price-savvy, it is WELL WORTH IT to get that education.  I would have paid it decades ago before the internet and before TV infomercials.  I would have gotten lots of other coins on the cheap to more than offset paying 25-30% premiums on 1 or 2 pricey coins. OK, back to the Hoards.......<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]
