I am sure there are several good numismatic supply/coin stores out there but most seem to be a tad high or equal to what I can find in local stores, then when you add in shipping you figure you are better off just buying it locally. On ebay you might get a deal on the item but shipping gets you.

With that being said, I had a really nice online shopping experience at Jake's Marketplace. http://www.jakesmp.net

They had very fair prices and shipping was extremely fair as well. I ordered some items I have been unable to find in book stores around town including the The CherryPickers Guide Fourth Edition Volume I and "THE VAM Bible" - Comprehensive Catalog of Morgan & Peace dollars. They have a great selection of books, storage, and even sell coins! Communication was awesome and my package arrived as promised via UPS.

Also their Danscos are about $6 to $8 cheaper than Retail at my local bookstores/coin shops and most importantly for the modern coins they include the most current pages so there is no reason to upgrade! So, I bought 5 albums. Shipping was $13 for my 12.5 pound box, try getting all this on ebay for that little shipping!

It's tough to find reputable dealers and close to wholesale pricing, so I'd thought I'd share.

I have had dealings with Jake's. The quality is good the timeliness is good as well, the prices are a little high
