    I purchased two quarters from them no problems. And yes they will send you pics'/scans if your request them.
    If I say something in the woods, and my wife isn't around. Am I still wrong?

    I have been watching one coin for a year now. Seems a little over priced at 3x PCGS guide. With not photos too boot. If the price was more reasonable I would probably try the request a scan route.

    That said, the reviews here appear positive. Maybe I should look into it againimage

    I was pleased with the service when I purchased one of Andrew's coins. They'll send photographs if you ask.

    If its been sitting there for over a year, I bet he is willing to work on the price. I wouldnt pay asking price on anything in the coin world if its sat for a year or more.

    I know I'm reviving an old thread here.

    Does anyone have a good email address for these guys in Massachusetts? I tried to use the one listed on collectors corner and it comes back with domain not found. They say to email for pictures of coins for sale, but there is no good email address to use.

    I bought some items from them a few years ago. Totally satisfactory imo.

    "Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. This is not a way of life at all in any true sense. Under the clouds of war, it is humanity hanging on a cross of iron."

    Website is very low budget but he is responsive to email and will send pics if requested. Bought a very nice seated dollar from him a couple years ago.

    That's nice. I tend to gravitate to the sellers of coins they don't feel need imaging. :s

    A lot of companies that were heavy in $20 gold coins, etc., are better off now. He was a big advertiser in Coin World.
