), because very few seller wants to sell his worn world coin for €0,05 or €0,10. Krause would give a value €0,20 for UNC coin but you have to pay twice as much for a worn one if you really want it 
In other cases, I try to get my coins at a market price or a little below if possible.

I just snagged up a set of 46-64 silver rosies for melt (or very close there too)
Condition was great (not all MS though).
I figured price of melt for the set was worth the price of the 47,48,49 pieces alone.
I always like to by lots as well...the more you buy, the cheaper it gets so to speak.
I once bought an entire collection for just one piece (trains, not coins though) by the time all was said and done, I got the piece I wanted for nothing, doubled my money, and still had half the collection left.
You tend to catch people off guard when you ask what do you want for all of it.
Yet again...If I see a coin that fills a spot in my collection, I go for it (if the price is right)
My wife says I'm indecisive...I'm not sure what she means
