Re: Is PCGS doing anything about the counterfeit slab issue?
<< <i>Except, as a buyer through the mail, you couldn't check the coin out until you it in hand. And if it was counterfeit, in many cases it would be too late to do anything about it. Excellent on line images that could be easily accessed and matched to the coins could accomplish the same thing. And buyers wouldn't have to… -
Re: Worst EBAY trim jobs contest
This may not be the worst trim job of all time, but it's an expensive one: The seller wants $1800 for a sliced-up Aaron rookie. It's not even trimmed squarely. The first scan shows the PRO 8.5 Aaron up for auction. It's hard to see the borders against the white background in the faint, hazy scan. (Think that's an accident?… -
Re: The Mullet's 1881CC in the Flesh...er...Metal
Eric, I am pretty tolerant of most things and in most instances I admire your aggressiveness in finding and weeding out fradulent dealers/grading services.

Re: Ripoff Artists, ebay, and the so called Certification Companies that aid them
I'm sorry to hear about your NARU, Bruce ... but not surprised.

A fun story about me, trading, and the post office :)
OK guys, get this. Last February, I completed a deal with mjcjk (Marc) where I sent him my three color brian shaw final piece jersey for his Iverson floor and MoPete jersey. Well, his cards never arrived, so I told him to just keep the Shaw, since he was such a trusted trader, and we'd even up on a later deal. Well, we… -
Re: Is this the "sign" that the bull run is ending?
<< <i>I got a chuckle over this earler today: My friend who got into the home remodeling business two years ago (when the business went to hell) called me and said he wants to open a store to buy and sell gold and silver. Is this the sign that the bull run is ending? >> No. My first cousin brought up this idea to me about…
