Of all the useless crap that has been posted in this forum, I must say I agree with you! My father was in business for himself. I spent many of my childhood summers working for him. One summer a customer called him a few names because the colors on the camper were in his words upside down! I tried my level best to rip his head off! Needless to say my father was not happy with my reaction! After the standard attitude adjustment, he explained to me that the customer was always right. He further stated that I would understand the principle when I was a little more mature! My father passed away this past March and I will have to admit that in this matter it would seem that I have yet to mature as he had hoped! I have one last immature thing to add! At least Bochiman is more of a Baboon than I have ever been!
Wow!! I'm gone from CU for a few months, and a 770 post thread developed. It took me several hours to read the entire 39 pages. All I have to say is, for every person who posted on here, there's gotta be 20 lurkers who read it and won't give this guy any business. The other realization is that I need to join the group that these guys are in! After enough time, I'll have a whole horde of lackeys defending me on online forums all night!!

It's truly funny, no make that truly sad, that people in this day and age are so wrapped up in their own little world that they refuse to try and teach someone else the correct or accepted way of doing things.

Yes, the dealer is also a seemingly dishonest person, but you must also take some responsibility for your mistake!

Ken thats like blaming the woman when she gets raped. The guy 100% feedback and gave very reassuring e-mails. >>
the best way to go is to buy slabbed coins. ( even though not 100% fool proof its alot safer). but if you buy raw you run the risk of things like this. its not like a woman being raped.on sleezebay you play at your own risk. thats why i dont deal on there anymoer

I love stupid quotes like this. Would anyone who has a business and follows this philosphy please send me a PM. When I get done ripping you a new one on a business deal, I can guarantee you will tell me outright that I am "WRONG". Anyone who follows this to the letter will be out of business in no time.
BTW.. where is that order i paid cash for last week and don't forget to include the receipt you didn't give me at the time. Don't remember? Trust me, remember, I'm always right.
Well, he appears to still be selling stuff at a pace of about 25-30 items per month
There's a not-so-fine line between ripping people off and scamming them. When you are ripped off, you may or may not know it. When you are scammed, you know it and are angry about it.

I never meant to imply he was not still selling cleaned crap (I did not check his auctions).
Huh. So this surfaces again... I have looked at his stuff a few times in the past six months. Last I knew he was selling mostly generic slabbed stuff. He was claiming to have a normal return policy at least, the last time I knew. Not that this experience would have *anything* to do with that, of course!
If we do hit 1000, would this be the first one in the US Coin forum? The weirdos over in the Open Forum have had their share, but I don't remember one here hitting that number.

I must have missed somewhere in the 800+ posts that Sliderider bought this coin from Mirabela after the slabbing?
Whatever happened to Sliderider anyway? He burst on the scene with like a 1000 posts in a month and then just disappeared.
