I know technical issues are not their fault, but anyone else lose enthusiasm for thus auction? I don't know why, but I could care less for any of the coins in this auction now. I am high bidder on a couple of lots, but do not really care if I win.
I intended to bid in the last seconds on six lots in this sale but backed off when they ignored my inquiry about a lot I considered questionably genuine. I am not saying I will never bid in their sales again but there are several dealers that I only patronize if they have something I can't live without. The others don't miss my business, neither will the next. I was happy with the coins I won from them before and posted here how amazed I was at the speed of their service. How many attaboys does it take to work off one aww@$#%???? Lets repeat the fact of being a low budget collector. There are many more dealers selling coins than I have the money to support. Marking another off my list means nothing to me and less to them. Spend your money with dealers who say thank you and let the ones who play games play with other people.
Rats, I forgot about Pecunem. There were a handful of interesting provincials I intended to try for and several of them went for very reasonable prices. Oh well, there will always be more.
