Home U.S. Coin Forum

I was looking thru coins on e-bay and I noticed one sellers,

coins have stickers and slogans all over his slabs,holders, such as "cheap as two pizzas" "WOW" ect. Comical looking but I guess it it working as he is doing about 7,000 transactions a year. Is anyone else annoyed by this or do I just have too much time on my hands? BTW, it looks like much of his stuff should be "cheaper than one pizza".

    As long as they aren't covering up the coin, no biggie IMO. He rarely has anything I'd be interested in.

    Make an offer that you don't have cash at the moment, but you would be willing to trade for two pizzas.

    If it works for his business model then good for him but that king of thing is a turnoff for me.

    For me it would be is the coin all there and a good buy bit I don't want to be distracted by ad slogans.

    I have seen a bunch of those. My guess is they are trying to mimic the CAC look, but to the uninformed. I tend to breeze right by those when I see them. Reminds me of a cheesy used car lot with the bright pennant flags and the big blow-up King Kong LOL.

    I think the stickers are going away . I was on the phone with ebay for my monthly seller confab and the woman told me the new picture guidelines say no writing or stickers anymore.

    I had a truck part listing where I wrote "97 ranger " on the part so I'd know what it was for inventory purposes , and she said you can't do that anymore. image
