[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 8181938, member: 112"]"What am I Missing" Yeah, sometimes it does. But I also think that knowledgeable and semi-knowledgeable collectors either forget or fail to realize just how many people there are out there who have no idea at all of what they are doing when it comes to buying coins. And this is especially true when it comes to things like estate auctions ! Of course it also happens on pretty much daily basis with things like yard sales and flea markets. People who have no idea what they are doing pay, what we see as beyond ridiculous prices, for what is being offered. And that, well, it's not that we're missing it, we just fail to think about it because as collectors we just can't conceive of it happening. But happen it does, and on a daily basis.
