PM's

How long does it take you to see that you have a PM and reply? If someone says let me know do you reply even if you don't want the coin/info/auction link?

    I don't get many PMs, so it's likely I may not notice the little blinking icon for a day. But if someone says "let me know", I think you owe the courtesy of a reply.

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

    It depends... If I am expecting a PM, I will reply as soon as I notice, which is the time taken to open a new webpage...

    If I'm not expecting someone to PM me, I will open the PM box in a new window, or wait until I have read a post/replied to see the PM.

    With my auction going on right now, I am not replying/viewing until the evening when I am home so I can record bids, thus I probably won't reply to PMs during school like I normally do until the beginning of March.
