ebay or LCS. I've yet to find any deals at the coin shows here -- Everything is way overpriced and the dealers act like they're married to their merchandise.

I PREFER to buy mine at our coin club meetings, whether it be the normal silent auction, one of the Live Auction days or our Members Only show... There wasnt an option for that so I chose " ebay", 'cause thats where I get the rest of my crap collection

I buy most of my coins in online auctions other than $bay. (Proxibid,icollector,GC, etc) If you are knowledgeable and patient, there are great deals to be had.
Secondarily, coin shows.

My LCS is a paradise for me with GREAT prices for mixed junk I love. Makes me enjoy every visit  But in the lack of proximity (local is very relative), I have stuck to " ebay" and made a bunch of purchases. I should stop doing that, my wallet hurts

Coin shows for me, easier to get better deals there with more folks selling coins. Plus, it's a great way to learn more about the hobby.

There is no way I can imagine that anything can beat a coin show for deals, values, etc. And no insurances, wrong coins sent, lost in mail, postage and on and on with all the things people deal with via the internet.

I see no one has picked pawn shops. I prefer coin shows, but I have had luck on occasion with a local pawn shop. Like any coin show it can be hit or miss, but I have gotten what I considered to be some good deals.
