This is an especially good place to start for new collectors. It will allow them to gain experience for a small investment per item. This is important because there are countless unscrupulous importers, diggers, sellers & collectors that prey on the innocent...meaning new collectors.

Also, with our great collectibles it allows buyers to compare prices to other items more or less comparable to what they want to bid on. Frankly, if you pay a little “too much” to get what you want, you didn’t overpay...you got something that pleases you. And that is what collecting is all about. Also, quality doesn’t cost, it pays. If you want to make money on your investments, switch to rare/semi-rare US coins which are in the early stages of a bull market and being propelled by a BULL MARKET in gold. {See certifiedcoins.com for more info on this fascinating and potentially profitable area of collecting called numismatics, and be sure to check our eBay auctions.}

And part of the fun is to buy these relatively inexpensive items and research them yourselves. Imagine what these things would cost if professional archeologists did the work? Even worse, they must have official permission to dig, and the host country gets their choice of what is found, and in many cases they get to keep everything that is discovered. That would mean the end of inexpensive ancient material. It may come to that, but for today enjoy yourselves.

Bon Chance,
