<p>[QUOTE=&quot;stevereecy, post: 4831052, member: 19884&quot;]I get what you’re saying, but in defense of slabs sometimes I purchase coins that I’m not expert in.&nbsp; And I really really hate when I buy a coin that I think is BU only to find out years after the fact that it is AU.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; If you think about it, if the market charges, let’s say a $30 premium, On a $50 coin then I would pay $80 for that coin. But when I sell it I will also get $80 back for it. So I didn’t lose anything. If I bought it raw for $50 and sold it raw for $50 I also wouldn’t lose anything.&nbsp; One could argue that the only thing I’m really missing out on is the interest on the $30 premium over the time that I hold a coin...however we all know that as the coin goes up in value the premium increases so I’m not so sure that you might actually come out ahead on that premium if the coin increases in value.</p><p><br /></p><p>So in summary, by paying the premium I get peace of mind, and I will likely get most of my premium and perhaps even access premium back when I sell it in the future if the coin goes up in value. To me it’s worth it.</p><p><br /></p><p>All that being said, I don’t wanna overpay for that premium which is why I asked my original questions.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
