  • As long as it contains the relevant information I need to find it in a search, it's somewhat important. I ignore all the W@Ws and other sales pitches. I go probably 90% on the picture and the rest of the decision is the sellers feedback. (Oh, shipping costs).

    I'm curious why shipping costs matter to you? Just factor it in.

    Do you think it reflects on the sellers integrity (i.e. more chance of fraud) if they are higher than normal?

    Yeah, it gets factored in when I figure how much I want to spend on the coin, but living in Australia and buying most of my coins from either UK or US, you would be amazed at the range of postage costs that some people charge. I guess sometimes that's their way of saying they just really don't want to ship overseas. I don't spend a lot of money on coins. I am currently working on a cheap ($20 per?) date set of UK Farthings (1672-1956) and many times the postage costs more than the coin.

    Keeping it cheap keeps it fun!

    It is important to never include L@@K, W@W, estate auction and rare

    Your poll doesn't appear to work, but I was trying to say "Add answer".
