jerrytheplater Valued Member United States 73 Posts	Posted 09/26/2025 5:44 pm I decided to keep the coin. Why? I really like it. Did I pay too much? According to a lot of the responses on this forum I did. As others have said, I'm chalking it up to my tuition. Do I like to pay more than an item is worth? No. ( How is worth determined: rarity, demand, availability? I like the coin and don't want to wait for another.) Did I know fake bidding could occur? No. I am pretty gullible it seems. I am also very new to using ebay. I signed up long ago because of the Tropical Fish Hobby. I never really went to it or used it. Now with the renewed interest in coin collecting I started. Seems most of the people I looked at are on the black list here. I guess the software knows how to find suckers. Even today when I did a search using this forums ebay member list, I put a lot of coins in my watch list. I went back to look at all of what I chose and began deleting those I eliminated. I found ebay put back some I deleted. They would disappear if I refreshed the page. ebay really wants to promote sales. I was trying to whittle down my list of blanks in the Danco Type book I'm trying to fill. I watched all I saw that were blank in my book or were of better grade than what I had. ebay put back some of what I eliminated. Not nice.

jerrytheplater Valued Member United States 73 Posts	Posted 09/26/2025 6:03 pm I am using money I've been saving for many years for discretionary uses from wages I've earned in retirement at a local greenhouse as a knowledgeable laborer/salesperson (salesman really). Money has also come from gifts etc. It is not coming from my families normal budgetary spending. So it is discretionary. In the end, this collection will be given to my son when I die. I am going to enjoy the beauty of the coins while I'm still here. What more can I say? Am I buying for investment? Kind of, but not really. Make sense? Report this Post to the Staff
adam126402 Pillar of the Community United States 886 Posts	Posted 09/26/2025 7:28 pm Jerry, I totally understand and appreciate your perspective on this. Good for you. I've returned a fair number of coins over the last three or four years but also have some regret on a few that although details coins, they were still quite pleasing to me. Looking forward to seeing more postings from you as you work on your collection! Report this Post to the Staff
