Re: The Dorkkarl Ethics Poll..............
My input, on the ethics thread, in case y'all don't read it, as follows: Let us relax a little, step back and.... Before there were 'Dealers' there were Collectors. The 'Business' is a result of the Customer....the Collector. If the 'Business' shams the Customer, you get what you give. To those 'Dealers' that take offense;… -
Re: Your worst shipping nightmare
One of these posts reminded me of another horror story. This time my early naivete had nothing to do with it. Bought a vintage SGC card from import_export_co. They didn't ship it, didn't ship it, didn't ship it. Kept on stringing me along with reassuring e-mails until PayPal's 30-day chargeback period expired. PayPal was… -
Re: Blurryface vs ringer should be embarrassed
so you're not denying your previous name calling comment, correct? how could i not put you in the "questionable" category? with that being said, after suggesting 18 chrome prior to you even entering the thread & never calling you a name, i still answered your concern in a respectful manner. but then you wanted to… -
Re: PSA profit margins going forward
<< <i> << <i>CU is very clearly the best of the best in coins and cards. They do a lot right and provide a quality service. However, complacency in those areas could backfire.

Re: Amazing ebay and the 1909 SVDB
Read the comments. About every 5th roll has an 09-S VDB, a 14-D, some 22 plains, etc. Rolls from 1953 often have a 55 Doubled die. Donate your money to someone on the FEMA list instead of getting a greedy scammer richer. The only "pig in a poke" on ebay that I ever bought, and I bought, IIRC, 7 lots, of a "coin shop" being… -
