A class of &#039;dealers&#039; figured out the secret of eBay.&nbsp; The fee structure favors listing coins at ten times a fair price and selling one coin every so often than listing with lower prices and selling them all.&nbsp;&nbsp; If they paid more to list and less to sell maybe we would not see $20 coins offered for $150. </p><p><br /></p><p>Another piece of advice:&nbsp; Try to figure out why one coin is $20 and another is $200.&nbsp; If you can&#039;t figure out why a coin is much higher or much lower than its peer group, you probably don&#039;t need to buy that coin --- at least yet.&nbsp; We here on CT see a parade of bargains from beginners that turn out to be fake and high price junkers bought from dealers who are lot seeking a long term customer.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I do not suggest posting info on coins available for sale.&nbsp; t is a good way to find someone else bought it before you decided.&nbsp; This is a resource that you should use but it would be better to ask, &quot;What should I consider when buying a coin of Caesar Augustus?&quot; Than &quot;What do you thing of lot 1234 in the new CNG sale?&quot;&nbsp; Questions of that type might be OK in Private Conversations but you need to be careful when talking about active coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
