[QUOTE="tmoneyeagles, post: 1045913, member: 17557"]And after asking yourself if you are gonna let somebody take the coin from you, ask yourself if you want the roof over your head and the clothes on your back! :D Only kidding, but bidding wars, especially on toned coins can get out of hand to an extreme. You also have to be very reasonable with prices paid on coins, and try to factor in a fair price using Numismedia, PCGS, and completed listings for coins with similar toning along with the dates they sold, to get an accurate price to pay. I get what you are saying, there are quite a few people that shy away from toned coins for numerous reasons and one of them is the fact that toner's can get pretty high up there in price.
