<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KBBPLL, post: 25666813, member: 104064&quot;]I have definitely overpaid too. For example, a couple years ago I paid nearly VF20 price for an F12 1903-S dime. It was from the John McCloskey collection, and I&#039;m pretty sure it&#039;s the same 1903-S he mentioned in a 1980 Coin World article that first described the thin and thick ribbon reverse types. Because his work led me down a long path of collecting all the Barber dime transition anomalies, I just had to have it. I have no idea why another bidder also wanted it so badly. </p><p><br /></p><p>I have occasionally ignored BP when upping my set bid during a live auction for a coin I&#039;d waited a long time to find. On a $200-300 coin an extra $40-60 doesn&#039;t bother me since I buy so few coins and it&#039;s entertainment money. So yeah, I&#039;m that bidder you hate to run into.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
