[QUOTE="Phoenix21, post: 359644, member: 7424"]Man, interesting replies. Can't say I didn't expect some of them though. ;) I agree with a lot that's been said, and I thank you all for your comments. Before I posted this thread, I pmed the seller about the coin, saying it was the accented hair, and asked if he would still sell it for the price he was selling it for ($8). If not, I sayed I could probably pay a little more. He hasn't replied to me yet, and I checked the thread he was selling it, and all the pics and everything were edited. So, I don't know. My thought is, it's only a $20-$30 coin really. But, basically with cherry-picking, where do you draw the line? Obviously to cherry-pick, you might need a little more knowledge than the other person. I don't feel I am ripping anyone off, because my thought is you should know what you are selling. Check to see if there are any varieties, RPM's, etc, etc, that might make it more valuable. But, with newcomer's (I should know) you don't really take the time to learn about that stuff (not all, but I would say it is safe to say most). But, like my original question, how do you know? Should a person just not cherry-pick? Is cherry-picking morally wrong?
