If you were buying a Canadian coin for over $40 which way would you most often make your purchase?

I have a $10 of 1914. That came via public auction. I guess that means in person from the vendor.

For me, when I set my mind on a specific coin all potential sources are fair game. I treat them different of course, meaning that a relatively expensive coin has to be graded if not in hand. But since I follow the ton of good advice obtained from this forum and others, I feel that I am armed with the right tools to consider all coin sources.

I only buy if these is a return policy from the seller.That way,if I am not satisfied,the coin goes back.  |

 Punman, 99% of my Collection has come from E-bay or other on-line auctions which is why my favourite sound of the day is the door bell ringing and the mailman standing outside with an Expresspost in his hand! Glenn  |

In person, of course, unless it's from a reputable company.

There are very few, if any, coin shops near where I live. Everything I buy has to be ordered online.

I never bought a coin on line, only at coin shows or coin shops. If they have what I'm looking for I will by it. But it's usually the coin that chooses me.  Edited by Joseph7420

Anywhere a good deal comes along for something I'm looking for I'm in. I find I typically do quite well at the shows if they have the coin I am looking at. If only Ottawa had some bigger shows than the RA, maybe I'll hit up Toronto one of these days for a show.
