I'm seeing a lot of coins I've been looking for at pretty competitive prices on there. Just wondering what the consensus is on using them to complete my collections. Thanks!

Its really a collection of various dealers that you get linked to through their search. I've never completed a buy through the interface there but itll take you right to the dealer websites and theres a lot of big name reputable dealers on there. Like anything else some things will be a good buy and some things will be overpriced.

It is a great way though to be able to search the inventory of a lot of sites all at once.

Yes, the dealers who list there are pretty reputable. David Lawrence, JJ Teaparty. People like that.

You may be able to beat the listed prices by calling the specific dealer directly. Also many dealers will indicate that they are bringing a specific coin to a specific major show - nice if you want to look at it first.

In my experience it's a great site. Bought a few Seated dimes and Half Dimes there last year and had no issue. Considering buying a bust Half from at the moment.

What I like is that you can send the dealer an offer from that site - so it is like a "best offer" option built in. I use that a LOT and have made many purchases that way - sometimes email haggling a bit in the process. Most of the dealers are solid, IMO.

I once bought directly through that site - a coin I knew wouldn't be haggled down any. But every other purchase I've made through them I've gotten a better deal than stated by haggling some. Even if just to get them to wave their s&h charges. I can't remember ever having an issue with any of the purchases. A couple of the dealers shocked me by sending the coin before they had gotten my check even.

Do look at the last updated date. Some dealers don't keep the listings very fresh and may have already sold the coin or changed the price on their website. So be aware of that issue.
