<p>[QUOTE="rbm86, post: 9199, member: 854"]Yeah, I realize the padding is common, you just need to factor that in your bid (which you did). I just get annoyed when they take it too far like charging 99 cents for a 6 cent padded envelope, or charge for insurance but do not insure the order (because they are willing to take the risk). I just think stuff like that is mildly unethical. But that's just me. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Regarding a pricing guide, I usually use the Coin Dealer Newsletter. You can download the latest issue for $4 from greysheet.com. These represent average wholesale (dealer prices) wheras the Redbook is based on retail prices. Another way to estimate current prices is to perform a search of "completed items" for the item you are bidding on, and see what prices were realized on Ebay.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
