<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Beefer518, post: 2869178, member: 87737&quot;]For a price guide, I NEVER use PCGS or NGC, and I only use Numismedia in a pinch. All 3 seem to be way over realistic pricing, IMO.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve been using coinsociety&#039;s price guide, which is ebay based for graded coins. I find it to be more realistic, but I still try and cut back 20-40% from what they a coin is worth. It currently says the 1962 25¢ in a PCGS holder at MS-65 should be bought for about $24.30, down to $14.36 in NGC, and $8.50 in ANACS. (PCGS is not always the most expensive).</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m not a dealer, so I don&#039;t have access to greysheet. My LCS gave me a copy of the Washington 25¢ greysheet page a couple of months ago, and I wasn&#039;t able to find prices even remotely close to what it said I should pay. It probably works great for a coin dealer buying from someone who walks in/contacts them to sell, but as much as I hate it, I&#039;m a retail buyer trying to buy at wholesale. So I do the best I can.</p><p><br /></p><p>GC is a great place to get stuff way below what the same would sell elsewhere for. I&#039;ve picked up quite a few pieces the last few weeks, and have been completely happy in every way.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
