<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GregH, post: 8198177, member: 75936&quot;]The collectibles market is crazy at the moment. Major auction houses are selling coins (generally slabbed) for an order of magnitude more than they are worth (Eddy I pennies and Gordy III denarii for $1k - as long as they are captured in that all important slab lol!). I believe the unknowledgeable cashed-up COVID-era investors have been let loose, buying up whatever they think looks good, inflating prices and making stupid decisions - like clowns running through a minefield. They&#039;ll never get their money back.</p><p><br /></p><p>I unashamedly buy many coins from eBay but i know my product well. eBay auctions are great, and hammer price is usually well below retail. The &quot;make offer&quot; option for Fixed Price listing also can yield bargains, but please be respectful of the seller and don&#039;t lowball beyond 10% off. Don&#039;t venture out onto eBay if you don&#039;t know the coin well.</p><p><br /></p><p>Prices on vcoins and Ma-Shops are generally on the strong end of reasonable, but a safe place to not get completely ripped off. As a newbie, I suggest you start here.</p><p><br /></p><p>Good dealers in my experience: Incitatus Coins, Cerberus, Ken Dorney, Dr Busso, David Connor, Sphinx, Pars, GB Collection, Den of Antiquity, Victors Imperial Coins, Lucernae, Zuzim.</p><p><br /></p><p>Oh, and Facebook groups for buying and selling coins are great - especially from members who have happy customers who can vouch for the seller.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
