Re: 1981 Topps signed Win Remmerswaal PSA/DNA
Ah, the craziness that is autograph collecting. I am guessing that there would be very little interest outside of a 1981 Topps or a die hard Red Sox autograph collector, aside from maybe some folks who just want to own things that others perceive to be rare and seem to have no other connection to an item. I collect signed… -
Re: WTH is this??

<< <i>Of course it's an 'error'. Unless you can convince me that the Mint purposely makes the obverse and reverse dies come together without a planchet between them, with a force of 50-70 tons, on purpose, it's then obviously an error. The term Error, imo, covers everything wrong with a coin or planchet. You can easily… -
Re: Ever pay for an ebay purchase by check, but never receive it?

<< <i> << <i>I would immediately file mail fraud charges. >> What a hassle, next time use PayPal >> FLorida, You're consistently recommending only using paypal. I understand that can be a good solution if you're unsure about a dealer. And I do take paypal if necessary. But in the last 2 days I've recieved $12,000 in checks… -
Re: 2004-D quarters:Extra leaf (high and low)
While it would certainly be nice to know what caused these extra 'leaves', this has gained so much momentum that it's almost a moot point. I will say this is exactly what variety collectors needed - an easy to see, repeatable (meaning more than one was struck this way) variety, something people can find in change or in… -

Re: UD Goodwin Museum Civil War Redemption mailday
Interesting cards that I am sure will bring top dollar, however I question the Civil War Period authenticity of many of the relics. If you think fakes/misrepresented items are a problem in the Baseball card world---the Civil War Artifact Hobby is infested with them. All the buttons could be postwar examples---the only way… -

Re: Red Sox are exciting to watch right now (SOMETIMES)
Of course you should watch them, but having hopes of any playoff posssibilities is not realistic. Last night's game should ring the final bell that the team is going nowhere. Story, (as predicted) adds zip to the team., as will Sale. Do the players look excited? They do their little silly dance if they get a W/O win, this…
