PNWType Pillar of the Community United States 561 Posts	Posted 01/24/2021 6:04 pm When I was first starting off I used ebay a lot, but I've come to find you can't beat the prices you'll find at shops/shows and I hate buying a coin that I can't look at first, pictures never do the same that seeing in person can. Because shows have been out of the question for a year now, my current mains are my LCSs, but as soon as shows are back on I'll likely be 90% shows and 10% LCS Report this Post to the Staff
jbuck Moderator United States 189340 Posts	Posted 01/25/2021 11:20 am Before COVID, coin shows were the king for me. My last coin show was in February 2020 and I bought one coin (a big one though). I have no idea when the next will be. If this poll were exclusively for 2020, the US Mint (Online Retailers) would barely edge out ebay.
