<p>[QUOTE=&quot;HandsomeToad, post: 560915, member: 12965&quot;]That&#039;s a good point!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I remember when I first got going on Ebay, I&#039;d keep the entire list of coins up, with the &quot;Ending Soonest&quot; format and I&#039;d browse them, refreshing frequently, until I ran across what I thought was a good deal and then I&#039;d snipe it. I learned pretty fast that was not the way to do it!&nbsp; :goofer:&nbsp; You have to study the coin closely first, which takes time and once you&#039;re convinced it&#039;s authentic and you have a ballpark grade determined, then you can bid on it, not a spur of the moment bidding frenzy which so many peeps do. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>CoinTalk helped me so much when I got back into buying/collecting coins and I just wish others would join before buying, so as to save them the grief I went through, as so many others have gone through.&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; So the spur of the moment bidders could have also gotten involved with that one but as I said earlier, that is not the way to do it on Ebay and anyone that bids on a coin because others bid on it, without examining it themself first, well . . . .</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Ribbit&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
