Re: Bowers book giveaway contest: WINNER ANNOUNCED
RYK, Thanks for this opportunity! I've been posting here for four month's now and I've learned so much I don't know where to begin. I'll give it a shot though: 1. Do your homework. I try to do my homework before I spend alot of money on coins. I like Kennedy Halves so I purchased the Wiles and Tomaska book's as well as the… -
Re: A question about sales on the BST?
<< <i>First, you can do it, but you limit those who may do transactions with you. I prefer Paypal, particularly in dealing with those I don't know yet (both ends...buying and selling). Second, you can have a PP account and have it linked to your CC, it just defaults to your bank account. Change it when you make any… -
Re: Why vest pocket dealers drink - part II
<< <i>Anyone who sells by a website or runs ads in CL / kijiji/ etc has surely received some scam attempts. Usually it involves fraudulent / spoof paypal payments. Sometimes they "pay" (always a spoof email) an amount higher than the asking price, and then request a transfer of the "excess" funds to them via western union.… -
Re: Rockport Indiana So-Called Dollar?
Lots of mis-information going out there. Hibler-Kappen limited their scope of medals in order to set their definition of a "so-called dollar". One of those criteria is that no loop be attached unless a non-looped piece also existed. They didn't limit just to reduce how many medals were in the book, but to define what they… -
Re: Fake PCGS Slabs from China, most dangerous ever seen
<< <i> << <i>Really? Never tried it. But why? I mean - faking a bar code is not that difficult, or is there any secret with the PCGS codes?

Re: Are we heading into another downward spiral?
Im in 100% agreement with Objectivity, I sold my graded Football collection almost 2 years ago for the same thought process of there not being much interest down the road and in my opinion there would be no way I would recoup the 10+ K I had into these cards. I am 42 and grew up during the height of the card frenzy, at its… -
Re: Enhanced cameo?
The manufacture of so-called "California Special" fake Morgan cameos is a scam that dates back at least 30 years. The scammer selects S-Mint Morgan dollars with semi-PL fileds and a few big bagmarks on the cheek. Why? Because these are cheap and common. Then a silver amalgam paste is made and applied to the devices to give… -
Re: Newbie Morgan seller needs advice.
It is not as tough as everyone makes it sound. One possibility, buy on Heritage and sell on Ebay. I see Heritage coins selling on ebay for 30% more all of the time and I do it myself. I suggest, however, that you educate yourself by researching current and past auctions first. I buy and sell coins simply so that I can… -
Re: Should I neg this Ebay Seller?
So let me see if I got this right-you bought a coin from some sleazy coin dealer on eBay-You went out of your way to go get a MO and not to mention you had to pay extra $$ for the MO plus spend your time, gas & wear & tear on your tires (what the dealers always say) driving to the PO or where ever you bought it and not to… -
Re: Need Help! I need everyone to voice in on this one!
<< <i> << <i> << <i>The more I read this, the less I would care to deal with either party. This is not the first time a newbie poster debuted with a mishap over a transaction, expecting to get unanimous support from the forum, only to find that he/she was not free from blame. >> " that's a ditto >> She has dropped several…
