I imagine that similar economic reasons explain the VCoins vs. MA-Shops price differential for a dealer in Austria. I saw the MA-Shops listing first, so it was fortunate that I happened to check the listing on VCoins before making the purchase. I don't even remember exactly why I did so -- I certainly wasn't expecting to see a price for the same coin that was 50 Euros lower. But, as it turned out, the whole issue was academic in this case: the next day, I exercised my 14-day right to cancel the order, after I realized that I had stupidly forgotten that I already had a very similar type for the same Emperor. Still, the frequent existence of a price differential between the two platforms is useful information to have for the future. I'm surprised that I never noticed it before. Not every dealer, of course, sells on both platforms. It's probably a minority that does so. Ah ok - i dont know the about the different from Austria and Germany about inside country taxes.

lordmarcovan Posted April 28 · Member Share Posted April 28 Note to self: when browsing, always look for the same coin on other platforms or on the dealer’s own site for comparison-shopping. (I instinctively already knew this, and have done it a few times, but I don’t always do it. I need to make that a matter of routine.)
