    It's been a rather pleasingly large influx of late. I figure the more who join this forum, the fewer who will get screwed out there.

    Gold Buffalo's-Too expensive for me, but a lovely coin I must say.

    I can't speak for anyone else... but the system would not accept my attempts to get on the boards for months, and finally, after a half dozen emails it cleared up just over a week ago. May have been some 'pent up' demand out there.
    Or, lurkers are just coming forth due to signs of a 'kindler, gentler, pcgs forum...image

    21k members, it was not that long ago I remember thinking how cool it was we were gonna reach 10k.
    Like Russ said, that's a lot of people who will be a little safer because of this site. image

    Of course they have to have a thick enough skin (or a humble enough ego) to accept it when people let them know they're not going to get rich by the handful of work silver dollars that came from Grandpa's dresser ;-)

    Now I've gone and poked the sleeping tigerimage

    It looks like time to go back to fuzzyhappycoins.com bulletin boards. My handle their is lala67 (couldn't get tinky winky or po, and the first 66 lala's were all gone before I got there). Happies coin forum on earth... 600 threads on nothing but gold buffalo pictures and a whole forum marked as the mutual admiration society.

    You'd love it there Russimage
