Re: Update to the Marla3748 eBay Scammer Thread! She is Now Bidding as yourad**k to harrass those who he
I hate to play devils advocate, but what if youradick123 is actually a legitimate new user and this is just a coincidence? How many legitimate users provide false contact information? Not just false but obviously false. I can understand someone just wanting some anonymity but when they use a name like youradick dickhead in… -
Re: After you buy a coin, and if you plan to keep it, what's the importance of a TPG opinion on the coi

After you buy a coin, and if you plan to keep it, what's the importance of a TPG opinion on the coin's grade? Assuming the coin was graded accurately, not much! But then again, there are suckers born every second! I can understand the importance of the TPG grade when buying a coin because -- for better or for worse -- it… -
Re: Is the 1818 14 star large cent a contemporary counterfeit?
MrEureka January 03, 2010 Patterson's letter states: It is probable that the manufacturers and distributors of these coins may not have known that the business was illegal as the spurious cents were not direct imitations of the true ones. What am I missing? Granted, I haven't seen the 1825 law to which he refers...… -
Re: How many folks backed out of the 2026 unc. mint set's ?
Last year there were over half a BILLION circulation strikes available. I'm not sure why everyone argues every point except the one that matters: there are only 190,000 (allegedly) business strikes available this year for the Lincoln cents. No rolls. No bags. And it is also a dual date one year type. Might the flip fall to… -
Re: True or false: All circulated coins have been cleaned.

"Any time the word "all" is used in a True or False statement, the answer tends to be "False"." I could not agree more. Any time that such extreme language (e.g., all, every, none, never, always), or other such hyperbole, is used in a statement, I tend to disagree. Although I understand the premise of your question, I… -
Re: Silver is now over $70 per ounce!
Even if the rise in margin during the Hunt episode caused the drop in silver.....the fact that it took 30 years to get back there shows you the price was not real. If the margin requirements weren't so low, and if the Hunt's weren't trying to corner the market, the price never gets that high. They never intended to take… -
Re: 1972 Topps Football
I agree with Favre. I never recommend complete sets or unopened boxes to build a graded set. On the surface seems reasonable but not efficient dollar-wise. You can pick up so many graded cards cheaply on eBay. For the tougher ones, you can buy singles and send in for grading. This may not be a 'pure' way to build a graded… -
Re: MONEYORDER OR CASHIERS CHECK ONLY!
"Yup, there's no evidence that he's dishonest, he's just a poor businessman. " ///////////////////////////////////////////////////// The guy is a bum. He is dishonest when he claims to accept PayPal, and does not accept PayPal. ALL of his listings are in gross violation of EBAY TOS. EBAY forces people like the seller to… -
Re: Better Career: Derek Jeter versus Ted Williams ...
Baseball, Jeter doesn't campaign for the praise, but his fans certainly give him that type. I also don't see him going out of his way to correct it. I certainly would not like to receive all that praise, while all my partners get crumbs. And yes, people do say stuff all the time about Ted Williams not being able to win a… -
Re: Cheated out of your Registry Award?
Yes, this did happen to me. I had been working on an 1883 proof set for about 7-8 years and was very happy to complete it last year: https://www.pcgs.com/setregistry/alltimeset/386267 The set is ranked #2 all-time but I know at least two of Hansen's coins (the Trade dollar and 3c nickel) are no longer in PCGS plastic.…
