<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Morgandude11, post: 1454345, member: 37839&quot;]I was not specifically referring to you with the &quot;stupid buyer&quot; post, as we discussed in a previous thread.&nbsp; I was merely pointing out that I honestly believe that for most reasonable buyers, the market of buyers and sellers MUTUALLY set prices, and premiums for items.&nbsp; If there is no demand for items, prices obviously drop, and conversely, if there is intense demand, they rise.&nbsp; That, obviously, is our system, and it is no different with the sale of coins--either raw, slabbed, or from the US Mint in sealed packaging.&nbsp;&nbsp; I don&#039;t condescend to raw coin buyers--occasionally, I even buy some myself, and always have.&nbsp; Then again, I am an experienced collector, and have no trouble &#039;cherry picking.&#039;&nbsp; For others, it can be extremely risky--especially with the purchase of older coins, when cleaning was oft times the custom, and mistreatment the rule for some coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>People are, of course, free to buy whatever they like.&nbsp; I say, &quot;if you like it, buy it.&quot;&nbsp; If you don&#039;t like something, whether it be raw Indian Cents, or Slabbed Seated Liberty proofs, you are not going to buy it, under any circumstances.&nbsp; Like it, you will buy it, if it is affordable.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
