Re: More post office problems...
<< <i><< They already do that. Funny thing, if I pay for $500 worth of insurance, but I can't prove the coin costs $500 they will refuse to pay! >> Just print out a copy of the eBay auction.

Re: PCGS submission question
NEVER use vinyl flips for proof coins. They are very prone to causing haze on the coins. Use only mylar, preferably ET Kointainer Saflips. And, as nwcs noted, they should be 2.5 x 2.5. Russ, oh Russ, OH RUSS. If only I had read your post, or one like it, a year ago, I wouldn't have ruined a nice mid 50's Frankie Proof by… -
Re: aswimmer toned Morgans on eBay, Real or AT??
That's very cute, Russ. Now, show me where I "defended this fraud"?? By telling Rampage that he wasn't fitting in with the crowd by refusing to spew venom and name call, that certainly didn't qualify as "defended this fraud". C'mon, show me where I "defended this fraud". It would be you that is making false allegations and… -
Re: Well, Ursabear, you little sniper you!
We Bears do have our ways... (Thanks for the support, Bear!) Russ and Don - I take your comments as very high compliments - coming from great snipers like you two. I'm not great at sniping, but I *really* wanted a '99 silver at a price with which I could live. Of course, when we're all sniping it at the same time, it's… -
Can you identifty a sellers images...
without seeing their ID? I've been thinking about posting this, and then Russ said the following today: "Some eBay sellers are very consistent in their image presentation. mnmcoin is one, jwcameo is another. Since both list coins I'm generally looking for, it's pretty easy to recognize one of their images when some toad… -

Russ, a great member here as we all know, took some pictures of it for mark feld. Good pictures too.. I then bought it from mark feld. I wanted to… -
Re: Ebay: No longer required to have slab photos
<< <i><< << That was changed a couple months ago to accomodate high volume moderns sellers. Makes sense. Russ, NCNE >> Makes sense? I don't know any high volume dealers in moderns that believe it makes sense to sell any coin without "any" photos? Who does that? >> Yes, it makes sense. Plenty of high volume dealers run… -

Re: It's time to quietly fade away...................
<< <i> << <i>It's funny to hear people talk about how tough this forum is - I've always thought it was pretty tame. If you want to see tough go to one of the Yahoo stock boards. >> Or the Yankees/Red Sox baseball chat boards, where fans of each team go to the other board. It's a crash course in Flame 101. >> On my Yankees… -
Re: For those with good cherrypicker stories-- how likely is it that you will actually keep the coin?
<< <i> << <i>Russ, you can't stop there. We need details, lots and lots of details >> Okay, but most people already know. I spotted an eBay auction with four proof sets, 1962, 1963, two 1964. This is what the two 1964 sets looked like: Contacted the seller and got an early auction close for $85.00 for the four sets. Sold…
