Re: What Should Be In a Good Market Report?
Here is an all-purpose, universal market report. No need to read new ones, just refer back to this thread. The [choose one: winter/spring/summer/fall] doldrums came to end with the jam-packed ________ [fill-in the blank] show. From the moment the doors opened to the gullible public there was a frenzied buzz as collectors… -
Re: Mint set survival.
<< <i>"Choice and gem coins can be scarce and in many cases there is virtually no other supply than these sets." You mean the is only 1,600,000 UNC 1987 nickles left. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH P.S. WILL OVER PAY FOR YOUR UNC 1987 COINS. 1xFACE >> This is OT but what the heck. Consider a coin like the 1931-S Lincoln. This… -
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: Heritage BP increasing to 22% 1/1/26 for US coins
So you are saying that you personally know every single bidder that does or has bid at Heritage, impressive. Dealers are like any group of people and will fall into a bell curve. Some are very smart, some are not very smart, and most fall somewhere in the middle. Also, the simple law of averages dictates that yes some of… -
Re: All-Time Patriots additions?
<< <i>Just looking through the All-Time Celtics set composition which somehow includes Reggie Lewis and Jim Loscutoff. Loscutoff is even given a weighting of 2 vs. a 1 for Bird and Havlicek. I guess it would make sense for PSA to provide some sort of criteria for what constitutes an All-Time team member. >> Good point. For… -
Re: 1964-D Peace Dollar - What's the Unreal Story? - Winners Announced!
Here's my PM'd story: Little known is the true fate of the fabled 1964-D Peace dollar. In October 1963, strange lights began to appear over the Caribbean island nations of Haiti, the Dominican Republic, San Monique, Cuba, and the Bahamas. These unusual phenomena caused great panic among the populations, fearing them to be… -
Re: A serious question for JoeStalin (Kevin)
what bothers me about threads like these is the expectation that UD/topps/etc. "owes" you something. personally, buying a box and knowing that i'll get 2-4 gu and maybe an auto takes some of the "surprise" out of it for me...and takes the focus off of learning about the players/reading the backs of each card like i did… -

Re: Update… Coin returned!
**> @mikee999 said: Agreed. Not a lawyer, but I do know it's a 3-part test: that the statement was false....that it was known to be false by the person saying/writing it....and that the intent was to cause harm to the individual in question who did in fact suffer reputational harm. Hard to see even 1 of those conditions… -
Added awesome Hackenschmidt Wrestling Card from 1908 PSA 9!
Hackenschmidt is a personal favorite of mine and I just got this in the mail a few moments ago. I am excited about this one as I cannot imagine that there will ever be a PSA 10 from this set. Georg Karl Julius Hackenschmidt (1 August [O.S. 20 July] 1877 — 19 February 1968) was an early 20th-century Estonian strongman and…
