If you want the best price have the different sources you have gathered and bargain with people (coin store, show or even ebay) and see what happens. Like others have said, guides are guides and not set in stone prices, if they were, how come every store does not sell the same coin for the same price?

Most people that sell coins know that they can mark them up a little bit and that gives them a range to bargain with. A GREAT dealer will know that they want you back as a return customer and will sell it for as cheap as possible to you. Look around and see what is out there before you commit to buy something. If you are willing to spend that much time comparing prices then a few extra days looking around won't hurt.

Wonder where those shows are at? I go to about 2 to 4 coin shows a Month. I would estimate about 1 in a thousand customers have the grey sheet. Most dealers do though. I've wondered around some coin shows for several hours, met people I know, talked to many I didn't know and seldom see a grey sheet in a collectors hands, pockets, etc.
Most usually have a piece of paper with stuff written all over it.
