You do need a starting place, but still take most of the price guides and all out there with a grain of salt. They are just that, <b>guides</b>. If I buy a coin I like, but Oh no! That guide over there says I should have paid this much for it, and that one over there says this much, some people will look at that persay as a numismatic sin. </p><p><br /></p><p>I like to use guides and greysheet and all to give me a bit of a ballpark figure, but that&#039;s about it. If I pay $5 over ask, so what? Like grading, I think when it comes to how much you should pay, I think it is subjective. </p><p><br /></p><p>Please don&#039;t get me wrong at all, I have absolutely no problem with coin price guides, or anything like that, but my only rant and problem is when it turns from a starting point and ball park figure, to what you <b>should</b> pay for a coin or numismatic item. </p><p><br /></p><p>Please forgive me for my rant, and I am sorry for hi-jacking your thread USS. This is all just my opinion, and I could be way off and totally wrong. That&#039;s always my little disclaimer persay, lol. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> I am done now, thanks for the neat thread USS! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Phoenix <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie6" alt=":cool:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
