Perhaps he's avoiding using the word "cleaned", because that has such a negative meaning in the coin world. But, if he really wanted to make...
The fee on shipping costs irritates me too. They could have only slapped that on people that came up with their own shipping cost and waived it...
I've taken to buying and selling in person via craigslist as much as possible. I still buy on FeeBay, but I don't know if I'll ever sell anything...
Odd thread. You say FeeBay has been good to you. But then you describe how sellers on FeeBay have been good to you. There is a difference...
Very nice pics! I wish everyone coming here asking questions about coins could post pics of a similiar quality.
They could certainly do that, but it would make the book substantially less appealing to me. Cookbooks are a little different since you can't...
Meh - too much clutter. I assume you found these while shopping for a Redbook. You might want to buy the Redbook first, then buy the tabs if you...
I get that, but he seems more concerned about a person bidding incrementally to find out what his max bid is than he is about a person just...
Why is it such an issue if someone finds out what your max bid is?
Even if they changed the system, I think they should keep the proxy bidding capability. i.e. You should continue to be able to enter your max bid...
It's hard to say what they would or wouldn't have done. If they put themselves in your position where they had to make up their mind up front...
What you describe is just standard auction bidding. If someone else outbids you, then they were willing to pay more than you. Probing and then...
Yes, counterfeiters die. Everybody does...
Ah, but then you'd be overpaying! If you use four quarter-eagles to buy a $10 MetroCard, you'd save 7%! Not 7% of the $209 that a quarter-eagle...
No apology necessary. Perhaps I just didn't explain well enough...
Yes, this is a problem. One of the many flaws in FeeBay's system that they don't seem to care about because they stand to profit from higher...
As many times as you want, just make sure your examples are comparing apples to apples. Sogdian coins, by nature, are a very poor example. What I...
Yes, but this strategy gives other people time to reconsider their max bid and decide if they're willing to pay a little more. Or, as in the case...
Interesting thread. Two things: 1. Of course price guides merely "report" observed prices, but they also have one of the strongest influences...
I've seen the same thing in virtually every antique store I've visited. I think most of them want to apply the same buy/sell pricing they use on...
Separate names with a comma.
