Textile toning, let's see what you got

stman · April 16, 2004 2:20PM

I see he went back and edited his posts. No harm no foul.

K6AZ · April 16, 2004 2:24PM

I don't see where he has edited any posts in this thread. Whether he edits them or not, he posted a coin he had already sold and said it was for sale. That is not good when you try to sell coins to board members. I certainly hope he offers some sort of explanation.

gsaguy · April 16, 2004 2:26PM

I don't know the fellow, but I suspect he's got the same affliction from which I suffer............old timer's disease.

K6az, I believe he made a mistake, then in turn edited his original post where he said the coin I bought was for sale. There is a different coin there now. I don't think he meant any harm by all this.

K6AZ · April 16, 2004 2:27PM

That could be it Bryan, but I would hope that he would come back and say he made a mistake. I bought a coin from him and was pleased with the deal. This however concerns me unless he comes back and explains.

K6AZ · April 16, 2004 2:29PM

Well, that would be a perfectly good explanation. That is why I always include the cert number in my images so I don't make that kind of mistake.

gsaguy · April 16, 2004 2:31PM

I agree Eric.....he could easily just tell the truth and admit that he was mistaken.

I made a mistake once.

I thought I was wrong about something....................................................but later learned I was actually correct.

OK, what I am seeing now is a raw 84-O. He needs to be a little more organized with his file names.

K6AZ · April 16, 2004 2:33PM

I thought I had the coin I bought from him up on my site. Here it is:

stman · April 16, 2004 2:33PM

Then because I quoted him.... the coin I said I own is the one he edited. Ay vey, this is getting confusing, I'm outta here.

gsaguy · April 16, 2004 2:35PM

Why do I still get the same Morgan when I go to that page? This REALLY is getting confusing.

GSAGUY

K6AZ · April 16, 2004 2:36PM

Well stman, what you do is go back and edit your message. Then it won't be so confusing anymore.

gsaguy · April 16, 2004 2:37PM

I need a program for this ballgame.

stman · April 16, 2004 2:39PM

Gsaguy, now I go back and look and I am also getting it like at first.

BTW, who's on first?

stman · April 16, 2004 2:46PM

Gsaguy, the reason you are seeing the same Morgan now is your cookies are corrupted. I started to see the same thing again, but deleted my cookies and it's showing the edited posts now.

gsaguy · April 16, 2004 2:49PM

TonedCoinTrader · April 17, 2004 12:09AM

<< I just Bought this coin from Carlsbad Coin Shop >>

<<So how are my friends on State St. doing?>>

K6AZ,

I could tell he was very anxious to get to her "big sack" of coins she brought in. Hope he got some goodies!

Sunnywood · April 17, 2004 12:12AM

Jason, are you sure that isn't artificially toned by placing the coin on a sheet of perforated metal and baking it? I was pretty good at inorganic chemistry, I bet I could make one like that in my kitchen !!

TonedCoinTrader · April 17, 2004 12:16AM

<<So, let me see if I have this correct. You are telling me you just bought the 85o in the Anacs holder graded 64, and I don't have it in my possession? I gotta run, this is getting too funny.>>

NO! That was the Wrong Picture in that posting, Picture Hosting's fault! I't should have been an 1884-O RAW Textile Obverse Toned Morgan. Here are the correct pic's:

Explanation, My pic hosting displayed the wrong pic's I have since attached the correct pic's to this thread. I was Not I repeat Not trying to sell a coin that was previously sold! I have Many coins for sale. Why would I do that!!! Clearly this was a Mistake. I don't need the Negative press. Please forgive me.
Thanks,
Scott

Let's see what you can produce.

TonedCoinTrader · April 17, 2004 2:20AM

These are the correct pic's I was trying to say I bought the other day. 1884-O Raw Morgan Textile Obv Rainbow Rev.
I hope these work right,

Scott

K6AZ · April 17, 2004 2:23AM

Scott, if you read up the thread a bit you will see that we figured that out. What I do to avoid this happening to me is to add the certification numbers to the jpeg file names, that way I know I am using the right image.

Also, if you backtrack a few posts, you should see a coin I posted that should be familiar to you.

TonedCoinTrader · April 17, 2004 2:34AM

Here is the problem K6AZ,
I did post the correct link to that picture file! I can't just Name the file it has a Web address with all #'s. I simply copy the web address and paste it here. When I posted it the pic showed up correct as the 1884-O. Now sometimes it is the correct pic and sometimes it is not the same (when I click Refresh.) It is the Web Pic Hosting site that is giving inacurate information as it keeps changing from one pic to the next

And yes I saw that coin. How is she? Did you crack her out? or just add a dark background? She is a Beaut no?

K6AZ · April 17, 2004 2:51AM

Hmm.. sounds like you need to find a better web hosting company and directly upload your files via FTP.

I like that 82-S, and it is one of the few toned coins besides my registry set that I have kept. No crackout, I got out of playing that game a long time ago. I'm surprised no one touched me on that one, I really expected to have some competition on it. Sometimes you get real lucky on eBay.

TonedCoinTrader · April 17, 2004 2:53AM

What host do you use? And how much is it?

Tell me about it! I was hoping you'd have some competition on it too...

K6AZ · April 17, 2004 3:05AM

I sent the webhost information via PM.

The toned coin market on eBay has really suffered due to the photo manipulation, return policies and "restocking" charges. Even when a seller puts up a nice coin with honest images such as you did on the 82-S, a lot of people just aren't willing to bid strong money for toned coins on eBay. This is why I stopped selling my better toned stuff on eBay. I got really hammered a few times.

Keep a close eye on eBay. You can find them, and sometimes cheap because of some of the lousy images.
