[QUOTE="The_Cave_Troll, post: 397341, member: 1674"]Since I don't know you, I'll assume you may not know me and I will start by saying I am a Heritage employee. Yes, there are some people who don't like our website, but most of that comes from lack of internet experience, or lack of experience with our site compared to other venused like eBay, or from something personal that causes them to dislike HA in general. When a coin is listed in our archives as "sold" then the price show [b]includes[/b] the BP. If it says $345 then that was exactly what they paid (plus a nominal shipping cost if we shipped it to them) and the hammer price was $300. Live bidding is not necessary. Many of our coins sell to internet bidders who placed their bids via our website prior the the close of online bidding. There are a ton of people on HA.com. Directly from the HA.com website: In an average auction we have thousands of unique bidders, which gennerally keeps there from being any "steals" though occasionally things slip through, it is rare occurance though. It is a little more complex than eBay, but we are a full service auction house instead of an online parking lot. By that I mean we play a role in the sale and delivery of your won/sold items that eBay does not for items sold in their venue. On eBay you are dealing with thousands of people who may be there or gone tomorrow whereas with Heritage you have the backing of a company with years of experience as the largest numismatic firm in the world. Give it a shot, if it doesn't work out pass, but it might be an opportunity to add some nice pieces to your collection.[/QUOTE]
