Screwed by Major dealer

shylock · July 15, 2004 3:58AM

Coin was described as "clean" but is riddled with flyspecs.

XpipedreamR · July 15, 2004 3:59AM

Things are really getting silly around here. Must be the heat

MadMarty · July 15, 2004 3:59AM

Spray it with RAID, and return it for a refund!!!

Maybe he didn't use a glass.

Russ · July 15, 2004 4:00AM

Is that something NCS can handle?

Paul, you are being WAY too kind. Those are clearly more than mere "specks" from those flies

Please feel free to return the coin to me for a full refund.

Clankeye · July 15, 2004 4:08AM

Major dealer? You sure.

Looks more like some fly-by-night organization.

Mark - I've already sent it back the same way you sent it, in a jar with air holes punched in the lid

Kyle - If you knew how long it takes to create a silly post like this you'd warn my neighbors.

You should demand your pound of flesh.

Aren't there some kind of government regulations for that? There is for just about everything else.

Bear · July 15, 2004 5:22AM

That coin should be dipped in insectacide.

LanLord · July 15, 2004 5:26AM

Glad they didn't say bits of crap in the field

shylock · July 15, 2004 5:32AM

So you're saying this isn't realistic? How do you know it wasn't a giant Indian cent?

BAJJERFAN · July 15, 2004 7:21AM

Send it to NCS; I hear they are sooo good that they can pick fly$hit out of pepper with a boxing glove.

Man, you are getting good with that photoshop. "Warn the neighbors".....love it.

bushmaster8 · July 15, 2004 10:56PM

Now you have me wondering, can a collector catch West Nile Virus from a coin? Of course all the Dealers are safe...they have been exposed to so much sheet, that they have what is known in epidemiology circles as "ghetto immunity"
