Good Afternoon:
Since we have this sale going on until the end of the month, (EVERY SINGLE COIN IN THIS LISTING GETS A 10% DISCOUNT OFF LISTED PRICE) we thought we would send a listing including ALL of our inventory. Sometimes, pieces "fall through the cracks" and you are not aware we have them. Or, perhaps you have had your eye on a coin for a while, hoping we would have a sale, just like this one, so you could pick it up at a better price--well, now is the time to act. Our Trick or Treat sale is good through October 31st, so take advantage of the opportunity to add a nice coin to your collection while our special 10% discount applies. Remember you can always put a coin on layaway. Please call me toll free at 1-877-772-4245 for details or to place an order. Over the weekend please email gail@jjteparty.com to place and order or if you have a question. You can also view images of these coins on our web site http://www.jjteaparty.com

I've been buying from JJ Teaparty for a number of years and I've
seen reductions on certain issues or coins but NOT all the coins in their inventory. This is a first for me.
JJ ever having a sale before either.

Especially the recent LB shows.

Here are just a few that I randomly clicked on ...
I was just looking at the one Gail sent me.

I collect all 20th century series except gold including those series that ended there.
<< <i>OK ... I am going to be a bit of a b4st4rd here. However, I have to ask because I truly want to know: What is the deal with JJ Teaparty??? They have this phenomenal reputation in the numismatics industry, have been around practically since coins were invented, everyone loves them ... and, yet, almost every coin offered on their website looks like is was scrubbed to death with a cheese grater and then sandblasted with lava rocks. So, I have to ask those more knowledgeable than I (which is just about everyone), what is the deal with JJ Teaparty?
>>
I agree, their pictures look horrible. I get excited reading a description, and then the pic is exactly as you described. And their raw stuff looks overgraded. That being said, I did purchase two coins from them with which I was pretty satisfied.
Chance favors the prepared mind.
1st... they do not promote themselves as a walk-in coin store...they will let you know that if you want to view particular coins in hand at their shop, it is best to call ahead. The storefront is primarily set up for the bullion trade, which I imagine is their basic "bread and butter"...
2nd... while they do have strong ask prices...they also have strong buy prices... and Liz, who is their main buyer at the shows (along with Gail, on occasion) is a very friendly, straight forward person to deal with. She has a keen selective eye and she is ALWAYS busy at her table and when she can get away, walking the floor.
I was set up next to her at the last Coinfest and we barely had a chance for any social banter... there was a steady stream of buyers and sellers at her table.
3rd... their pictures absolutely could stand some improvement...yet their descriptions are accurate enough for me to rely on... along with their reputation and the fair way they handle their business.
I just emailed Gail this evening to order one of their coins...a tougher date I rarely see available... she replied within a few hours and the deal is done. The coin will be on it's way to me on Monday and they always pack safely and ship quickly. All in all, a very professional and polished organization.
I haven't had the chance to meet Gail yet... only have exchanged emails and spoke on the phone a few times. She did inform me that she will be coming along with Liz to the next Coinfest, so I will get the chance to meet her in person.
On a final note... as for approachability... I'd feel comfortable dealing with JJ Teaparty more than Stacks, anyday...

I've purchased several coins from them over the last couple of years and in my case every single coin looked much better in hand than the picture showed. I just chalked it up to them not taking good pictures. Their site is one I check regularly.
You couldn't ask to work with nicer folk than Liz and Gail. I've dealt with
Liz since the early 1990's before she married Miles.
Liz is a straight shooter and has a great eye - and easy to work with
whether you're buying or selling...she loves to buy back her own coins
when I upgrade...I've always felt well treated with her.
Gail has maintained my Want List for years and always lets me know
- sometimes from the Bourse Floor - that they have something I may want.
You can't ask for better service than that !
Yes, I agree with the consensus here that they are higher priced but they
are willing to negotiate with you in a fair manner.
I also took advantage of their October Promotion - and picked up four Barbers -
which I have posted on the Barber Mega Thread. I probably would have gotten
the same price any other time of the year, but nice original Barber Halves don't
always come around too often. JJ Teaparty recently had one of the best groups
of VF/XF Barbers Halves certified by PCGS in recent memory. Now, the group has
been cherry-picked and I believe the NEWPS have all been sold off.
I also agree, I would much rather work with JJ Teaparty than work with Stacks;
I have nothing against Stacks as I only buy from their auctions and my relationship
with them stems from my association with ANR and before that Bowers & Merena.
Prior to B&M, I purchased quite a few items from Bowers and Ruddy back in the early 1970's.

<< <i>OK ... I am going to be a bit of a b4st4rd here. However, I have to ask because I truly want to know: What is the deal with JJ Teaparty??? They have this phenomenal reputation in the numismatics industry, have been around practically since coins were invented, everyone loves them ... and, yet, almost every coin offered on their website looks like is was scrubbed to death with a cheese grater and then sandblasted with lava rocks. So, I have to ask those more knowledgeable than I (which is just about everyone), what is the deal with JJ Teaparty?

I agree, their pictures look horrible. I get excited reading a description, and then the pic is exactly as you described. And their raw stuff looks overgraded. That being said, I did purchase two coins from them with which I was pretty satisfied. >>
I dont know if their scans are so big that makes them look grainy, but when i bought my gold from them i stuck to the NGC and PCGS graded coins If the slab was in the # i wanted and the coin looked the part. I was happy to pay the money. BTW customer service from gail A class all the way .

over 160 rolls on 4 years and the rolls were capped off so there were "21' in most of them instead of 20!
(This was around 1980-3). I told them and they said "enjoy the extra coin" (per roll* and "Keep em!"
I probably received 75 free Colombian halves or so from them!-awesome!
Edit for spelling.
Collecting 1970s Topps baseball wax, rack and cello packs, as well as PCGS graded Half Cents, Large Cents, Two Cent pieces and Three Cent Silver pieces.
I have never received a body bag on anything raw that I bought from JJ Teaparty.
Then again they are a bit liberal in their grading but PCGS has come close
in all instances to JJ Tea's raw grades.
Once I purchased a raw 1905-O Micro O dime as an AU 55 from Liz, and I
requested that they send it in to NGC for their Variety Designation [ PCGS
wasn't offering it at that time to the best of my memory ] - and the coin came
back as an AU 58. I have since crossed it to PCGS and its still in an AU 58 holder.
I believe its a POP - One in AU 58.
I feel that they are very acurate in their descriptions and if the coin has anything
of concern, they'll be up front with you about it. As I mentioned before, Liz has a
great eye - and I trust her judgement.
