Re: Ebay question
The short answer: If you really want to stick to the policy you set out, kindly inform them of your policy and return check. Take NO retaliatory action of ANY kind. The long answer: "Does the extra week mean that much to your cash flow?" Cash flow is not affected unless your bank puts a hold on it. Mine NEVER does from… -
Re: Change your collecting interests....
I'd tend to give her the benefit of the doubt (so far).... I think she's just trying to share her interests.... The link in her profile is set up incorrectly, but this is it...

Re: How's this for ethics?
<< The price marked on a coin doesn't have to have any relation to the actual price wanted. This isn't a supermarket. >> When I confronted him about the price on the coin, he stammered "That's just kind of a guide to the actual price of the coin." << Would you have complained if the coin had been marked at $800 and you… -
Seattle Boeing Coin Show report. :)
I know you're all dying to know if the show came off as planned. Well, it did. Kent was clearly hit harder than other parts of Seattle by the recent storm - lots of streets still closed and many trees still down. The folks at Kent Commons however were ready to go.

Coin Prices - who-how-what-why-where & when
Anyone interested in discussing how the price of coins is set? I've bought coins from several of the large dealers that publish price lists and/or catalogues, and even when buying only one coin I don't believe I've ever paid the listed price. I've not asked for a discount, nor argued the price, nor even hinted that I would… -

Re: Are U.S. Collectors the most sophisticated?
I think the fact that we have so many die varieties, errors, rarities, oddities and that coupled with COMMEMORATIVES..... creates a view that we are "sophisticated" or maybe having a "broader" knowledge of numismatics. I think by world populations and cultures, we have a greater number of collectors per capita than other… -

Re: Bubble Mailers Code
Spam it may be, but Royal Mailers does seem to get a warm reception on the BST, and I for one am listening to this spam, as it is well-timed. I was just thinking of ordering from them, and now the discount codes will make me think about it even more. I need mailers right now. RM, for future reference: we usually put "SSP"…
