Advice sought on buying higher dollar cards
I am looking for some advice for the best way to buy some higher dollar cards (of course higher dollar is relative...).
I am in the process of putting together a 1953 Bowman set. Most of the cards are PSA 5 but a few are nicer. I am at the point where I need to get some of the more expensive cards in the set (i.e. Mantle, Ford, Berra, Snider, etc.).
Here is my question... how do I balance my fear (i.e. buying a fake) vs. greed (getting a good deal)? Do I just pony up and buy one from a known dealer (i.e. PWCC) or somewhere else?
Thoughts?
