demon dialers piece of cake should be fun.

Honestly, the mint is just making more widgets. I am ashamed to be an at times slavish collector. But really, I am not sure if there will be much collector (as opposed to "flipper") interest in either.
And now here comes the palladium eagle.....

<< <i>Keep your eye's open for the proof versions from the mint >>
Uhhhh, just so nobody gets confused, they are not going to be proof versions. They will be "blasted" versions of the Uncs and struck from the same dies. The finish is supposed to be similar to the Medals that are issued by the mint. >>
along with a 'P' mint mark on the uncirculated version. That has me wondering, if this Unc. set will grade PF or MS (MS likely?) I do know higher grades should be much easier, obviously.

Ya, this is kinda of BS. I mine on a credit card, then sold some silver and had my entire cash payment taken and credit card wasn't used. Not sure what to do?
Pay Pal offers an option for you before you send payment. If you don't take that option it will take your money out to where ever you set up your default in your profile. e.g. Bank account, Paypal, or credit card.
Does anyone know if they still make phones with "auto redial"? My first cell phone was a big clunky thing from Qualcomm that had a feature that would continuously redial a number until it got through. Only had to press redial once. Great phone!
"The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary."
Apparently my cell phone has an auto dial feature that I wasn't aware of. I had to go into the menu, sub menu & sub sub menus to activate it! The Prudential offering would have been a cakewalk with that!

This one is a 2 year old Samsung that has so many features it came with a book! (Which of course I never read). All I wanted to do with it was talk. Apparently it does lots of other things too.

I think you're right. I think I might try calling Prudential today just for the hell of it.
I'm still trying to determine if the Mint will step in or not. They'll need some actual real evidence to actually do anything, and that will take some audits. It remains to be seen if they really have the manpower/will to do that. I think to be fair they'd have to audit more than just the obvious--TGC. Personally, I'd like to see the USM call the bluff and knock on some doors. They're going to look like powerless sissies otherwise.
But they very well may take the easy route and just forget about the whole matter and take strides to make sure the situation doesn't present itself again.

For the benefit of us who are computer morons, what exactly does F5 do and Shift F5? I'm sure that "screen refresh" (if this is what this does) will be very useful when the nimismatic pucks are sold. Thanks very much to you techies for any help/explaination of this!!
These unopened sets are still commanding good premiums. >>
A couple since then have been around $2600.
Did you all notice the PCGS "BU" set which went for raw set money? Was this because of the 6 week wait or because they will not bring any premium over raw??
I never would have guessed that at this stage in the game, "IN HAND" would still be important to put in the ebay posts. And that stock images would still be so prevalent.

If the theories are true that they haven't actually had PCGS encapsulate these yet, I can see that taking some time. I also suspect these will be arriving sooner than that. That way if they run into problems, no worries, and if they arrive much sooner, they look like the good guys.

Hope you're right. It's frustrating to shell out for these things then have to wait a couple of months before they arrive. At least on ebay you get them immediately. Maybe that's why people don't mind paying so much.

It seems like PayPal restricted/froze lots of accounts... Some type of algorithm found that there were 10's probably 100's of accounts opened at the same time, and all - without verifying banks/address - all did the same 974.33 transaction to A-Mark as their first transaction...
I spoke with PayPal for hour two different times, and they wont budge.
I called A-Mark and told them the story, and how it isn't an isolated incident with my account. they assured me that they wont throw away my transaction, and will try to 1st - work it out with PayPal, and if not, work with me to work out a different payment method.

I called A-Mark and told them the story, and how it isn't an isolated incident with my account. they assured me that they wont throw away my transaction, and will try to 1st - work it out with PayPal, and if not, work with me to work out a different payment method.
ADVICE: if your PayPal transaction to A-Mark is still "pending" and not "completed" --- YOU HAVE AN ISSUE! - A-Mark tried to complete ALL the transactions already.
CALL A-Mark - don't waste your time with PayPal (they are a bunch of robots (i explained the coins, and why so many people opened accounts for this transaction) - but they're algorithm doesn't use common sense, and the "managers" are robots - they do what the computer says.)
On the other hand, if you do have this problem... the more calls A-Mark gets, the more likely they will come to an easier solution to the problem.
They're number is 310.319.0388 Pryionca answers the phone (she doesn't know much), ask her to get transferred to someone in billing (Effron seemed very helpful for me.) >>
Thanks for the update. Good that AMark is open to other forms of payment if PP refuses to release the holds.
<< <i>HUGE A-Mark NEWS!!!
It seems like PayPal restricted/froze lots of accounts... Some type of algorithm found that there were 10's probably 100's of accounts opened at the same time, and all - without verifying banks/address - all did the same 974.33 transaction to A-Mark as their first transaction...
I spoke with PayPal for hour two different times, and they wont budge.

I'm not so sure that explains the issue at hand completely. My Dads Paypal account is new but 100% verified (credit card & bank account) but still shows pending.

So, would be interesting to know if this is happening randomly (all different sorts of order numbers), or only to those after a certain number (ie....anyone 700 or higher)?
Do you (and anyone else having this) have high order numbers (4 digits) or lower ones?
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment
