Re: How would you collectors respond to this?
Russ sed: get similar eMails and calls all the time. In every case I take the time to provide a little education about their coins and make suggestions as to how they should proceed. Yesterday's eMails included one that was a couple jars of circulated wheaties and IHCs, and another that was a set of circulated Peace… -
Re: How do you become a dealer?
<< <i>Iwog and Russ are both right. >> << <i>I too agree with Russ and IWOG. >> I think you guys need to go back and read my posts. I completely disagree with Iwog. He thinks all dealers are scumbags and condemns them with the same accusations every time one of these threads come up. I, on the other hand, live in the real… -
Re: What happened to my post? Poofed
<< <i>Some of the discussion was excellent. The problem with these threads, though, is that there are members who can't figure out the difference between rational discourse and baseless accusation. >> Well if that is the case then I will have to learn to watch what I say more closely. I am not sure if you are referring to… -
Re: What information/proof/considerations should be involved when placing a pedigree on a grading label?
And I say there is no such thing as a "true collector." Just personal preferences to how you go about things. ......just my opinion. The definition of "true collector" will surely vary from person to person. I say that a "true collector" collects coins and appreciates their historical significance (i.e. ex-Logan). The rush… -
Re: Wow!
<< <i> << <i> << <i>Can you even paypal $105,655.55 >> Nope. PayPal has a single transaction limit of $10K. In fact, when you go to place a bid on an item above that level it produces a note that states such. Russ, NCNE >> Thanks Russ! >> Russ- I believe you are incorrect about paying over 10k in a single transaction. The… -
Re: what is the most money you ever paid for a raw classic coin?
<< <i><< << Define classic. Russ, NCNE >> something 1930's and before...I am guessing >> In that case, $600 for a 1909-S VDB Lincoln. Russ, NCNE >> after buying, did you slab it or the 16 d ? >> Nope. I sold them both raw no reserve and sweated bullets hoping I didn't screw myself on the purchase prices. Both were problem… -
Re: I love the new lookup page for submissions, post your 1st PCGS submission.
<< <i><< Ken, That order won't show for anybody but you. Russ, NCNE >> Russ I saw that so what I did was just put the submission number up. I never have figured out how to link submission results.. >> That actually won't work either. It's the PCGS internal order number, rather than the submission number. The submission… -
Re: Ebay has become such a cesspool
In a post a few weeks ago, Russ got an Accent Hair JFK by asking someone to end early... That's about the jist of it, right Russ.... Inspired by Russ... I emailed two sellers about certain Peace Dollars, one seller ended the auction early for me. The other happen to have the same date/MM but in better condition, I got the… -
Re: Is a Public Apology Needed?
<< <i>Example.. Russ posts a picture of the 1964 AH Kennedy in PR68DCAM he just makes at PCGS, and it also happens to be on E-Bay. Russ says nothing about it being on E-bay, but has a Click here to see my Auctions link in his siggy. >> Bad example since I don't post coins that are currently for sale, nor do I have a link… -
Re: EBAY SELLERS BEWARE!!!
