Lol, pretty good. One to consider too is: Thou shalt learn all you can about coin collecting, and share and use it. Very good man. :thumb: Phoenix
Left this on off the list; Thou shall covet other's coins I wish I had some of the coins I see out there. One day... -Steve
You should have stated for coin collectors only. This does not apply to coin dealers, ebay, coin stores, coin anything except collecting. Now come up with the same thing for dealers.
Thou shall not steal other's coins Thou shall not desire other's coins Thou shall not tool your coins Thou shall not bore other cointalk members with ridiculous posts (sorry had to put that there to make sure people were reading )
Though shalt not cheat new collectors Though shalt not look at anothers coin with lust Though shalt not ruin another coin dealer by bad mouthing Anyone want to come up with the other 3? Phoenix
One small addendum to your 10th - make it the 1st commandment and have it read - Thou shalt learn all you can about coin collecting, before you buy coins !
I have a coin commandment for GDJMSP thou shall lose to spock in the memebers beat the mods thread sorry i couldnt resist where were you all day? we missed you
Thou shalt not cheat new collectors? Hmm - try; Thou shalt not cheat collectors. Most of the ones for collectors should apply to dealers as well. Changeing buy to sell, of course.
man, if everyone played by the rules everyone would be happy! but no its all about making $ and ripping people off.
