Re: China numismatic society 1795 $1 MS64!
<< <i>This has all the makings of a disaster. >> This begs the question: What does the future hold for slabbing? The quality of fakes gets better and better, and inevitably it's only a matter of time before these same scammers start creating convincing replicas of respected slabs.

Re: Buy a Johnson, Help the Christians buy a van!
All the scammers parrot that same possible reprint line, but I am pretty sure that the eBay policy they are trying to comply with doesn't mean what they think it means. Here is the ebay policy: "Authenticity Disclaimers Sellers may not disclaim knowledge of, or responsibility for, the authenticity or legality of the items… -
Re: I need a little advice on an eBay ethics matter.

russ i find it peculiar that knowing nothing about the buyer, it's assumed by most that he must have done something to get the boot. it seems there are just as many reasons why he may have changed his ID that have nothing to do with anything shady. shame on us! NARU just means the ID is no longer registered. so long as the… -
Re: Most Valuable Unopened
I remember typing that, and on second review before posting, adding the "when the card is in hand." That was because from say an Ebay scan of a raw card, it can sometimes be difficult to determine the authenticity and/or problems with the card.

Re: Sad news regarding Cameron Kiefer......

Re: UPDATE: I wish I had caught this earlier..74/77 100% PFB
All good points Bochiman. But too risky for my likes. However to be fair to the Seller I will follow the sales and post here with links to all of the positive, neutral or bad feedback that he gets. Looking at the 77 item he's auctioned I don't think I saw one single item that did not attract one or more bids. If he's a… -
Re: How much fraud in edge lettering errors?

<< <i>I am just suspicious that a good amount of fraud is going on with the Presidential Dollar edge lettering errors. It seems to me that someone could fill in the letters for a smooth rim and a tallented engraver or machinist could create double lettering with the right equipment.

Re: Is "honest dealer" an oxymoron??
Sure they exist. And much like "honest" auto mechanics who only fix what's broken or about to fail, business relationships with these dealers need to be nurtured and word-of-mouth should be used to reach other potential customers and reward them with enough business to stay afloat. Even the most "honest" dealers (which…
