I can never get a good, or even DECENT deal on a $10 eagle or something because these idiots bid FAR over heritage auction prices. Seriously, with enough investment capital I could make $150+ per coin on double eagles. The stuff that's going for $1100 on heritage is going for close to $1300 on the bay...

A little baggy but definitely MS. Looks very similar to my NGC MS62

It sounds counter-intuitive, but in many cases ebay has driven prices up, not down, IMO.

There are better deals to be had elsewhere online if you buy online.

I agree. While I don't do Gold, I find very little numismatic material on e-bay to be a good buy except for the occasional one that slips through the cracks. I'm also noticing a lot more "Buy it Nows" and not so many 0.99 cent starting bids.

I think e-bay came out with a communique awhile ago saying they would be encouraging BIN's and focus less on "auction-style".
Rest in Peace

Ironically, I've gotten rare silver coins, even certified, at well below heritage prices on there. All the while, people bid these crazy prices for common date gold.
