Re: dc
Obviously if you don't send a package with delivery confirmation (or some sort of tracking) you leave yourself open to scammers. I treat it as a mathematical formula. In my experience about 1 in 18 packages sent without delivery confirmation end up being reported as undelivered by the buyer; whether they received the… -
Re: Wacky seller - the dispute begins. Like watching a traffic accident in slo-mo.....

Re: Beware of this ebay buyer

Re: Warning: ANACS slabs with switched coins
The one on ebay looks ok to me. It does seem that the newer slabs could be opened easily especialy if you get one that wasn't sealed well. The older ANACs slabs would be tougher, you can look at the edge and if reealed it should show. I would think it's small one time scammers, the big time ones would need a big supply of… -
Re: I am all in for the big purge!!!!
I have found buying what one likes is the best way to collect. In buying diretly from the mint when I see something I like it saves me the trouble of worrying about scammers and insane mark ups. Whether someone else likes my choices really doesn't matter, it's my collection. I have also read enough posts about what people… -
Re: Identifying fake Hong Kong Trade Dollars

<< <i>Every fake Trade Dollar I have seen as been significantly underweight, weighing in at 21 to 22 grams. With enough practice, you shold be able to tell the fake just by hefting it in your hand >> Thanks for the reply. BTW, I recognized your ID from eBay. With the value of genuine Hong Kong (and Japan) Trade Dollars so… -
Re: eBay feedback idea
I don't disagree with this idea, and I've often thought of it when a seller charged $5 for shipping and spent 87 cents to mail a bubble envelope with no other protection. But once you do it, the other person may still be ticked off (or embarrassed) enough to give you a neg anyway. After all, you've already left your… -
Re: I wonder what this would crossover to?
My thoughts exactly guys. The auction ended for a little over $500 though. I saw the BCCG7 and looked at the card and there is no way it is worth that. I thought it was kinda funny to send it to BCCG in the first place. Must have known they would have gotten a higher grade and a pretty good selling point. (If you are… -
This popped into my mind (regarding American bullion coins and the LIberty Dollars)
Was reading MrEureka's thread about bullion and it spawned a thought... Many people bash collecting bullion coins because "they're just bullion." People sometimes pay sick premiums for them, especially when they are encased in MS70 or PR70 tombs. I've heard a number of people bash the Liberty Dollars by saying that the…
