Presumably we'll hear their rant shortly...

Yep....I dont know if its from the same seller, but ModernCoinMart, cancelled bids on '08 Rev '07's. They just put them up, and boom, gone, with about a week left. Who is holding out now trying to push the price up? Listing, then pulling them, hoping for a better payday is just flat out wrong...its flat out bull$hit. There is another thread where a forum member just comes out and admits 'pulling' auctions. Trust me, I will no longer be bidding on ModernCoinMart's coins, NOR any other seller who just feels like 'pulling' auctions whenever he/she wants.

That's interesting. I've posted in a few threads that went poof as I was typing.

CheapTrick on the part of moderncoinmart..... for shame

Just for the record it was NOT Moderncoinmart.


I think it was pulled because it was a raw coin that was cracked out of a slab...and he had the insert showing the certification info above the 2X2....I am not 100% sure, but that was my guess!

Maybe MCM sold them offline . At any rate MCM was was one of the original providers an in fact sold way too soon IMO. They even had a dutch auction for 5 PCGS First StrikeSM MS70's that sold for $1,350 about 10 days ago (same buyer bought all the coins). The guy that bought the coins did better than they did.

YIKES!!! Not a bad return (assuming he flipped already) for 10 days. If he hangs on to them for a short while, it should be QUITE a nice return. Seeing how the '95-W is about 5 grand, I dont know if I'd hold or not. Though, making 10 grand in 10 days, hell, I'd seriously think about flipping. Even if they do climb northward, I'd be VERY happy. $1,000 a day....thats not too shabby now, is it?
