Message:: [QUOTE="Sallent, post: 2837234, member: 76194"]I know, over the last months I've bought lots of budget coins and I've noticed that too. A coin like this one might get 10 or 15 likes and 6 or 7 replies. [ATTACH=full]670297[/ATTACH] But when I  buy a $500 or $600 shinny coin like this one, I'll get 30+ likes and 20 to 30 replies. [ATTACH=full]670304[/ATTACH] But here is the thing, I don't buy coins for Likes or Replies, and I most certainly don't buy coins to get "reputation" or acknowledgement from other people online. If that was the case, I'd only have 30 or 35 coins in my collection, and all priced at $250+, instead of over 120 coins with an average individual price of  around $60 to $80 a coin. I could care less if some people don't like or reply because they can't be bothered looking at a nice budget coin. I got the coin for myself, not for them, and I still appreciate that there are a handful of people here who will bother to look at it and like it or comment (even if it's a humble budget example), and share their similar budget or high end samples with me. This is not a popularity contest for me, but rather a passion and commitment to enjoying and sharing ancient coins of all types and prices (even the crusty cheap budget one's) with others.[/QUOTE]
