That you still haven't purchased a coin from even know they are awesome.
For me it's John Kraljevich. Great dude. Most of his coins and medals are out of my genre but I visit his site often. One day!

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

Me too and Kagins.
Boy ain't that the truth.... some of the asking prices are STUPID high

Then that makes them "not awesome" right? So the correct answer would be none of them I think??

Ditto.
Also, NEN. I've won one of their forum giveaways, so I got a free coin out of them, but I've yet to become an actual paying customer. Maybe one day.

This, too.

While this may be the case, many times the coins are truly stellar examples that demand retail+. The key is determining which coins are worth the premium and which are not.
I've bought from many of the dealers lister above. In some cases I have overpaid and will not see my investment back. In some cases the coins are worth well above what I paid.

He gave a great example as well.
Another example would have been "Mark Feld", when he was dealing. I did purchase from him, and still have those coins...and they are all still great after this time.
But, some folks may not have purchased from him (coin already sold or whatnot) and may wish they had. I take the OP's question in that frame of mind.
As for me answering the question.....probably Legend. I have come close, twice, but hesitated due to price. That aside, Legend has some awesome coins and, from what I have seen, great customer service (for those that don't go into things wanting to pick a fight with LS or anyone else).
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment
Relationships with dealers can be very important in forming a collection. As import as the coin, no. But it's part of the process.

I did my first 2 deals with them this year after just forwarding other collectors in their direction as they had stuff I knew was on their want list.
Gary Adkins is now Broadstruck Jr's favorite dealer as they send along Werther's Gold Foil Candy in a neat Gold Draw String Bag and I keep being asked if I got any more in the mail

With such a numismatic name, he should totally make a token like the following similar to the Merriam Brasher Doubloon Stef just got.

May the good Lord bless you. …. And I'll keep at least 2 feet away.

I'm having an easy time with this one, can't afford to buy coins from "Awesome" dealers
