Hansen prices tend to be high, but so is the quality and the integrity
behind the deal....which are more than a little important....

I have dealt with Don Chatterton and Jim Kuehl, as well as Ken Hanson
and Tamarkin.  Tamarkin would be my last choice, although everybody else
seems to like them.  I find Tamarkin very professional, but the
descriptions were off a bit and the prices higher than the other three I
listed above.  I don't think I would even consider Tamarkin, based on
items I have received from them in the past.  Both Don Chatterton and
Jim Kuehl were very professional with the items graded fairly and the
pricexs very good.  Ken Hanson was also professional, but the prices
were only better than Tamarkin.  I would call Chatterton and/or Kuehl.
