Coin Dealer has beautifully revamped website

Options

After years of gentle prodding (what many folks might call "nagging") my good friend and fellow dealer has completely revamped her website.

The dealer in question is Bonnie Sabel, owner of Sabel Rarities in Texas. And she really outdid herself in this case.

She has always been known for gorgeous coins (toners, DCAM's, high grade type, etc.) but now she has a website that shows these coins off properly.

Take a look for yourself.

Just incredible eye candy.

Congrats Bonnie, if you are reading this!

    Bonnie is one of the best in the business, very friendly and personable. I've gotten a few coins from her over the years at shows and they are among the top coins in my collection.

    I've seen a few of those coins in person that are on her site, the photos are pretty much spot on.

    Did Bonnie buy Albanese Rare Coins from Dean? Is Dean retired?

    The SabelRarites.com's logo shows CoinAce.com as the website and CoinAce.com (website for Albanese Rare Coins, Inc.) only lists Bonnie on the About Us page:

    Also of note is that the CoinAce.com About Us page doesn't only list Bonnie Sabel as a Sales Manager but her description starts with "Sabel Rarities" which is interesting.

    Sabel Rarities is America's premier rare coin dealer.

    She looks very familiar. I’m sure I’ve seen her at FUN.

    Did she used to work for Heritage or some other major outfit years ago?

    I hope it doesn’t have a CAC sticker….it could derail this thread! 😉

    Very nice coin website.

    The problem with being a first adaptor of having a coin business website is that technology changes as does website abilities.

    I really need to redo my coin business website, but with 2400 images and 600 descriptions, that is a lot of data to transfer over. I should probably just hire someone.

    The problem of already having a website is that is is easy to do nothing.

    Sorry for resurrecting an old thread, but I prefer searching for an old one to add comments to rather than creating a new one...

    Has anyone dealt with Sabel Rarities recently? I created an account and sent them an inquiry regarding a coin I'm interested in. I'm curious about their response (do they email or call, and how quick is the turnaround)? They seem to operate similarly to Harry Laibstain's Rare Coin site where you have to inquire about purchasing a coin before purchasing the coin, presumably for security reasons.

    Thanks for any insight.

    I’d bet her responsiveness to an inquiry was slowed due to being active at the ANA show.

    Ditto with the others regarding her sterling reputation. I’ve had many positive interactions with Bonnie.
