I kinda disagree with pricing - in reality, all you need is two buyers to battle each other to raise prices. At times, some coins may appear to...
Yes, I face similar situations. But I take it this way - there are many times when I do get a bargain and I let others some bargains as well. You...

Voting for this thread to be closed as the last few posts are unrelated to numismatics.
Keep on whinging - how this is detention related to numismatics? Only a matter of time when this thread gets locked. If you don't like someone's...
Republican silver coinage is another matter by it's own in my opinion. Don't forget that within these years 1912 to 1949, there are still some...
