<p>[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1364806, member: 112"]I don't even know what poster you were referring to, nor does it matter. Your comment was that because the poster said that a slabbed coin was not worth more than a raw coin that he must be a troll. Thus implying that he was saying something that wasn't even true just to get a reaction. But - what he said was true, a raw coin is worth just as much as if it were slabbed. Thus he is not a troll.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Yes, we are talking about a type of buyer because the type of buyer is precisely what determines how much that buyer will pay. An educated buyer will pay the same amount, raw or slabbed - every time. An uneducated buyer will often pay too much because he really has no idea what the coin is actually worth.
