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: Ebay: No longer required to have slab photos

Re: OT -- Who's got this nasty cold/flu?
BTW, I also haven't had a flu shot, or any type of vaccination, in almost 30 years. All the people I know who seem subject to regular colds and flu have. What does that say?

Re: For those with good cherrypicker stories-- how likely is it that you will actually keep the coin?

The platform of $30/oz hasn't been realized yet due to the constraints established by Russ.....he hasn't sold yet so the market will remain at a low flux till the time of 37min past sale from Russ.....prices will then increase exponentially till a base market of $38.24/oz is established. Another excellent point! I tried to… -

Re: Is this Kennedy half dollar artificially toned?
Well, it looks like a lot more than the sand is "cooking" down there in Phoenix, AZ. Thanks rd5425 for the help. Though I couldn't make your 2nd link work. Russ' seller lists his auction location as THE DESERT. Rd5425's seller lists his auction location as PHX, AZ. Russ' seller lists his address in the payment instructions…
