Where to buy

I was going to ask this question the other day before the ebay thread started, and now it is making me think to ignore ebay all together. But, what other online auction sites are there (that you can rely on for quality and service)?

Someone recommended teletrade to me. I checked out the website and it seems like a rather good site being devoted soley to coins. And it "appears" to be more safe since you are purchasing from the company and not an individual. One thing I didn't understand was the buyers fee of 10%, does that mean you add 10% of the winning price to the amount you owe them?

 

Well I'm looking for feedback on either teletrade (the good, the bad), or any other auction site that is a little more safe and reliable then ebay. What do you folks recommend?

Yes; Teletrade is a good place to buy coins thumbsup2.gifI've been getting coins there for year's. they also have a download that makes it so that you can zoom in on a coin and get a real good look at it.but they do sometimes play with the images(I've noticed this mostly on the toned coins).

and yes the 10% buyers fee is added to the winning bid, so if you bid $100 you're actually paying $110 plus postage.
