<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 489848, member: 15309&quot;]I only hate when collectors judge other collectors.&nbsp; My biggest pet peeve is when one collector says to another &quot;you overpaid for that.&quot;&nbsp; I buy my coins based on eye appeal and I pay what they are worth to me.&nbsp; I know what the price guide says but I do not consider resale value for a profit at all when I puchase a coin.&nbsp; This is a hobby to me and I am completely fine if I lose 10-15% at time of resale.&nbsp; I chalk it up to the entertainment value of the hobby itself.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I just wish that collectors would stop judging each other and grading each others collecting habits.&nbsp; I spent $100,000 on a college education that I barely use, I don&#039;t mind spending money for a numismatic education.&nbsp; The only way to really learn about coins is experience.&nbsp; You can read all the books you want, but until you see the coins first hand, your education is not complete.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
