Re: Where is everyone getting there cards from? I am Frustrated
instagram has been great. no tax, usually 5% - 10% discount off ebay pretaxed pricing. just make sure you use the reg paypal option. i'm sure there are scammers on there but any seasoned vet can spot them pretty easily and simply move on. the last card i bought was 22% cheaper than the cheapest BIN on ebay. pretty… -
Re: TV Coin Sellers
It's great that a few started collecting because of these scammers, but think of all that way overpaid and said screw it. Now if they actually sold the stuff for market rate they would be a benefit to the hobby. As it is now they kill the potential for appreciation on modern stuff by buying boat loads of stuff in an… -
Re: Great Lakes is at it again....
Yep, the scams that worked 10-15 years ago, or even hundreds of years ago in various ways, the con artists out there will try to find new modern ways to make them work. Frankly, it's just too easy to start a new business name, open up a bank account in that name, and use a new address. Then the scammer is back in action… -
Re: Common Franklin Half for Moon Money
<< <i>I might be inclined to cut her a bit of slack. She might have done a quick Ebay search, seen a moon money super high grade gem, and not had the knowledge or education to accurately assess her coin and circumstances.

Re: Questions about 1965 Lincoln Cent labeled "Double Dot"
If you dig out some old Coin Worlds from the mid-60's, you will find a lot of ads touting the "Double Dot" cent. It was 1965, the first year of the "no-mint marks", and a batch of these "Double Dot" cents were released in the Kansas City area which presumably meant they came from the Denver mint. The scammers hyped them as… -
Re: Pray for those in Alabama....Large parts of Tuscaloosa, Birmingham destroyed by monster twisters...
I heard that Ringgold, GA was hit. The only other time I've heard of Ringgold, GA is the repeated email scam I get asking how much shipping is to Ringgold, GA in an attempt to hijack my account. I hope the twister only hit the scammer. However, he probably lives somewhere else, likely offshore. I called my family in MO… -
Re: Went to one of the hotel coin buying events...
I have always wanted to do this. Hopefully I will get the chance soon. These people can afford to be friendly - you don't want to scare away the easy marks. I can only imagine what their offers will be when I show them some of my treasures. Should be an interesting discussion. I recall someone wanting to set up a competing… -
Re: Need help with a 52' Topps Mantle Purchase >>
Hi and welcome to the boards. The '52 Mantle is one of the most popular cards amongst scammers. So you are justified in being extra careful. Frosty (from being cracked open and resealed) or even fake holders with fake printed labels are common. Your best bet is to buy it off a reputable dealer like 707 or a very high… -
Re: Paypal chargeback
Also Mike in the future if something like this was to happen and it was on a more expensive item, if they try to claim not authorized and in this case all you need is to prove delivery of a box or envelope to said address to get paid out you can always ship out another box this time with tracking info to the same address…
