Looking at my profile and I do not see how to do what others have done, such as having automatic quotes under all their posts and having quotes...
LOL! I'm a newbie. I would need to get a lot more experienced to do that, and then I would also get the opinion of an expert, like Jeff Garrett...
Some of you say you break out coins from their slabs. Can you share how you do it? Thanks.
Why not mention the ebayer's name? We should always warn each other in my opinion.
Maybe some will give me crap for this, but hey, it's just my opinion: I think the hobby would be better off if TPG's never came into being. Yes,...
I like mutts :)
Wow, really? A lot of fakes get slabbed?
Sure, I'm not promoting them. But I'm not AGAINST them. I just am not interested in them myself. You make it sound like I'm putting people down...

That is one reason I'm waiting. The panic buying will subside.
There is a compromise: for high value coins I could buy a slabbed coin but break it out for my collection. The hobby aspect of it is more...
Wow, 72 years! I bet you are better at grading than the slabbers! LOL
There was a time where slabs were nonexistent and one had to just do the best they can. I'm in that camp. That being said, I will buy slabbed...
I don't know where you are seeing $5-10 over spot. I know it's high, but not that high. It seems to me, $3 over spot is readily available. Some...
What is the reason for the restrictions? I'd like to be objective about it and not just do a knee jerk reaction. Maybe there is a good reason for...
