  • Greetings friends and thanks for posting some cool coins and related material.

    Costa Rica has been fantastic, so having said that, I have been sternly warned by Carol that I should keep all my posts STRICTLY coin related. So, anyone wanting a full run down on my life down there can send me an email at adriancrane@aol.com or PM and I'll give you a run down complete with pictures and diatribe.

    Again, thanks for the pictures and looking forward to hearing from all of my old friends.

    Hey Adrian, nice to hear from you.

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

    Oh, so you're still in business. That's great because maybe now some collectors can sell their toners back to you.image

    Adrian Crane. Long time no see.

    Sounds like lots has happened since last we talked.

    This should be an interesting thread to say the least.
  • richardshipprichardshipp Posts: 5,647 ✭✭✭
    Is this a tease thread or are we going to hear some "rest of the stories"?

    What about the sisters?

    What about the police?
  • maybe the twins dumped him..


    poor Adrian,

    If I say something in the woods, and my wife isn't around. Am I still wrong?


  • << <i>Always 2 sides I got the popcorn ready 500? >>



    Nah-Adrain is not that spayshul of a guy, he is what one might refer to as the snake that got away from the path of a over inflated semi bald tire on the mighty freeway of life..
  • are you still in costa rica?
  • BlindedByEgoBlindedByEgo Posts: 10,754 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Great to hear from you. I hope that you and the girls are well.

    Email sent, however, a PM of your photobucket account link would be fine image

    Take care.

    Business before pleasure. Before I hear how you are doing personally, it would be nice to hear how you have made things right with Brandon.

    Why do I think that we won't be hearing about the answer to this one simple question as op tests the waters. >>

    I can see this is going to be a late night. I'm afraid if I go to bed this thread won't be here in the AM.

    Also, I thought the issue was between poorguy and adrian's ex, not the man himself.

    hi Adrian, good to see you post. How is life in Costa Rica? The better half and I sometimes play with the idea of leaving the US to become expats on the Pacific coast down there. I don't see us ever doing this but it's been a fun thought. We've read up a little bit on life there. Seems the country has a lot going for it image

    Wow, I didn't realize Brandon's legal team included so many members of the CU forum.
  • Billet7Billet7 Posts: 4,923 ✭✭✭
    I don't know the whole situation...but it is nice to see people looking out for Brandon (poorguy) whatever the situation. (I have only heard bits and pieces of the ANACONDA thing, Adrian's wife consigned all the inventory to HERITAGE after Adrian left the country...Brandon, the partner, got nothing. Right?)

    I actually miss the Anaconda website...I used to check it all the time. I still check out Polaris on ebay (that's Brandon's company I believe.) Nice coins from both places.

    I find it difficult to believe this thread will stick to the subject of coins, as Carol suggested.

    Here is a coin.

    I cannot do a Costa Rica coin. Here is Sardinia.

    I really do not believe this is Adrian. Besides who cares?
  • Cool!!!!

    I got quite a few PMs requesting updates with pictures........if you sent me a PM without an email address, please send me another PM with an email address......it will be easier for me to send emails as opposed to PMs.

    With regard to questions and comments that are unrelated to coins, to respect Carol's request that all my posts be completely coin related, I will restrain myself and address all non-coin issues in my email.

  • Ok, guys, help me out.....I click on PMs, read the PM, hit "reply" and nothing happens......it does not give me an opportunity to reply......

    If you have more than one PM window open in your browser, I believe that will prevent you from replying to any.
