Does Anyone Else Here Collect Sample Slabs?

I have never held a slabbed coin in my hand. I seen them at stores but they pretty rare at the coin shops I got to. There might be around ten in a display case. I usually have zero interest in what they have in the so never asked to see them. It was a surprise when I went to a upper end store in Michigan and all of their counter coins were slabbed. I was relieved when I saw they had albums coins behind the counter.

I've been collecting samples for a long time now.

It depends on the slab. The common ones are just a few dollars, but some of the rare ones go for hundreds.
