Why you should get a slab caddy from Russ, and why I got one.

This is a very useful invention. I just got one from Russ.
I often bring only several slabs to a coin club meeting or in my briefcase to work to share with
fellow numismatists. This is a perfect way to secure them from rattling and offers safety. When I open
my briefcase on my desk and someone is nearby, like a UPS delivery guy or a janitor, there are no
coins glaring up at them. Total security and portability, very handy. It can masquerade as film or as a holder designed for something else, and it does not draw attention to your slabs. Cool!

    Okay, you sold me on it. I have been meaning to buy two since I first saw them. I never carry more than a few coins with me, so it should be perfect. Next time it comes up, I will be able to initiate a thread about my good/bad/ugly experience with Russ/Compucheap!

    RYK, make sure you understand all the terms, and pay via credit card, and also call it a 'Done Deal'.....

    Make sure the caddy isnt artificially colored....

    Two questions:
    Are the coins included?
    and
    Does Russ take credit cards with Paypal?

    Based on Clank's story, be sure you get a "new" one. image

    The slab caddies arrived today. Not only can you comfortably fit two slabs in each caddy, a loupe also easily fits. This will help me live up to my full geek potential at the show this weekend.

    Thanks, Russ!

    And RYK, I hope you are a patient person......he is kinda slow on the shipping time too. It's been almost a day and a half since I bought some coins from him. You think I have the coins yet? NooooooOOOooooo!!! Came up with some halfa$$ed excuse about "couldn't get in the post office." If you ask me, I don't care if it is a Sunday, he should have gone the extra mile or thousand, and brought them to me. I don't know where he's at, but Michigan can't be that far away.
