The Biding is heating up.... I still say Russ will snipe it from himself with 2 seconds on the clock!

  • where else can russ get all those high grade kennedies in one shot!!!

    I still say the seller is questionable to say the least, why he has one big fat negative, a questionable return policy and doesn't allow us good buyers to use our credit cards!

    No one would ever think for a moment that I'm impartial, but I think that is a great looking set for the money. The albums are a great addition. While the hunt is fun it's is also time consuming and many times frustrating. Russ can be kinda picky when it comes to these coins and I have to think that these are the best to be found in the grade. IMHO.

    This is the mental picture I got of Russ right now:

    He is nervously sitting staring at this auction, then he gets up and paces back and forth,
    He then sits again twiddling his fingers with beads of sweat around his forehead,
    He then gets up and franticly paces back and forth again while looking at his watch,
    He then sits at his computer again and takes a big drink of coffee, waiting to snipe his own auction with 2 seconds on the clock.

  • I wonder if that high bidder was just one bid short of hitting that reserve? How did he know? image
  • I thought it was gone this time. The bid darn close to the bin. Will it come back on the market?
  • << I wonder if Russ will make a deal with dheath@triad.rr.com. >>

    I believe that person is actually a member of the boards.

    If not, I know I've done some kind of business with him...

    Directly from my CU->eBay page (linked in my sig line),
    DHeath dheath@triad.rr.com DHeath on the NGC forums, too.
    Yes, he's a board member.

    Now, I was shocked to say the least to see this auction! Russ????
  • DHeathDHeath Posts: 8,472 ✭✭✭
    Russ is tough. I'll admit I had larceny in my heart with my bid, but I've seen most of that that collection one coin at a time as he knocked them off my watch list with last minute snipes. If it was his #1 set instead of his #2 set, I'd have BINd'. Who knows, I just may end up with them anyway some day.image

    Well, the set has now been retired from the current finest, so somebody else got to move up to the first page.image
