Re: The Great Toner Post
Gee! I love looking at this thread! You guys have some great toners and some really fine photography skills to boot. I'm posting this not because it is a great toner, but to illustrate lighting. This 1969 Kennedy sat for many years in one of those after market silk-lined wooden display boxes. As most know I like to shoot… -
Identifying a Colonial: rare Machin's Mills update
Good evening everyone: With this note, I update a thread of last Dec. 26 in which I posted a couple of pictures of a colonial which I had very tentatively identified as a rare Machin's Mills piece. The consensus of much-more-informed readers was that the coin was the real deal. So in early January, I took the coin to… -
Re: The 2016 Boston Red Sox
Was able to catch the game on TBS, which showed slices of the Ortiz sendoff...what I saw was nice, but then again, not that much. I'm sure the hour long event was much more enjoyable. So, the Jays win a slot for a one game playoff against the Orioles...good for them. The Red Sox had more than ample opportunity to win the… -
Re: Big BBCE announcement?
BBCE's full Facebook post: Exciting news for Baseball Card Exchange! Earlier this week, almost exactly 23 years to the day of opening our doors to the original retail store, we signed a lease on a new location that will serve our warehouse and mail order needs, as well as provide us with an area to operate a retail… -
Re: What are the pros and cons of using a dealer to consign coins to a major auction house and...
Gosh, guys, I've just sold two major consignments, including my entire nickel three cent piece collection (proofs and business strikes -- sob). I realized way over the $1.3 million needed to pay for my 1894-S dime. I'm a died-in-the-wool collector, not dealer. I'm speaking to you as a fellow collector, not as a dealer like… -
Re: Sport Kings Gum Cards are Back !!
I will buy some boxes. Release date October 2007. The auto list is interesting, but there are some real arrogant AHs in the mix. A graded set of the autos is probably the only financially promising part of the program; the base cards are not likely to EVER have any value. I agree that Chuck Norris should be on the list.… -
Re: General rules for purchase returns at BM shops/Shows
<< <i>Returns for a purchase you made in person? Why? >> Because at most coin shows the lighting is sub-par for the retail buyer. A good example of this is the Wespnex Westchester, NY November show held in the auditorium. The high ceiling flourescent lighting interferes with the grading in nearly all parts of the main… -
Re: St. Louis show report
I was running late today and didn't get to the show until around 12:00 and by the time I realized it, it was 6:00! I was busy enough that it slipped my mind to call you, LarryL. Argh. joecopper, were you at Tom Reynold's table early this afternoon? I was the other guy, I think. I met Rick Raaf from Scotsmans today and he… -
Re: Post some new Barber images - the Mega Barber Thread
Broadstruck...I have no objections ... I think that's a great peddal car for your son. If you photoshopped a pair of Barber coins in place of the wheels absolutely noone would object. Sunnywood: I'll advise you the next time I'm anywhere near your neck of the woods. Spending time with you admiring your collection would… -
Re: Is this kennedy a fair price ??
<< <i>If you were only having"fun" on a Saturday night and I took it the wrong way then I will apologize. I have no problems at work, I have superior customer service skills and help everyone I come in contact with. I just keep my thoughts and feelings to myself. Some questions people ask ( and maybe mine was one) are…
