<p>[QUOTE="tommyc03, post: 3192011, member: 17665"][USER=98120]@Koin Nut[/USER] Yes, ebay has gotten far more complicated in the past couple of years. Although they have the selling page down to one page from two, they now require a lot more info on a lot of items. If you cannot add info to the line items highlighted with a red asterisk you cannot complete your submission. As far a the cheap prices go, it seems a lot of people get into the slab craze prematurely, spend a small fortune to do this and later find they had a common, high mintage coin slabbed and they often come in under the owners expectations for a grade. A lot of money wasted. You may also see raw coins cheap under the auction format at a low starting price with the seller hoping it will advance. But often times it does not and these can be had on the cheap if you are lucky enough to find them and be the only bidder. I have picked up many Proof 69 DCAM coins this way for under $6.00 each slabbed by PCGS. In these cases the seller had submitted hoping for a PF 70 DCAM or Ultra Cam.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
