<p>[QUOTE="Kent, post: 687892, member: 22491"]I have red on here that if you pay RED BOOK price for coins you over paid, that people on Ebay pay too much, yet when I see coins offered that have been graded by the top TPG's they are always double or more RED BOOK and I seldom see quality raw coins go for less than RED BOOK price on Ebay. I admit I have never paid RED BOOK price for any coin, but I have lost a lot of auctions because of being stubborn. I also look at ads in Coin magazines and unless a dealer is running a special they will be priced above RED BOOK. I honestly don't care about the price if I want it and can afford it, but I just can't figure out how Price Guides, Auctions, and Dealer ads come up with their prices when they are for the most part not even close to each other. I hope this isn't another one of those talked to death post I have just started again, but I am curious and you folks know what is going on.</p><p>Thanks Kent[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
