No problem. One thing I would say is you will never know what you don't know. You will never know if you didn't place ANY bid until the last...
Many nowadays do not have fees. I used to use snip.pl, which had a very low fee like 8 cents per successful auction. Effectively nothing. If its...
Of course not, but it sure beats tethered to a computer counting down an auction ending. I have better things to do than that for MOST auctions. :)
Many times you do not want to telegraph your interest in a lot. A lot of bidders will "nibble" at your bid, bidding it up to see if they can get...
A website you sign up for that will bid at whatever maximum you set with a few seconds to go. Auctions on Ebay effectively happen in 10 seconds....
use a bidding sniping service.
I wonder if they are going back through their records and issuing refunds to all of those who paid for it and did not receive the protection they...
Well, I am not a beginner. I would say you need more of an advanced expert on Ardashir types. I have been collecting Sassanian for 20 years....
Just to clarify, my concern is the shape of the crown. I do not remember the OP's coin's shape before. It looks like a volleyball was cut and...
Good info. Btw, am I "melodrama"? I would say 1985, 1990, 1995, 2005 are all good comps, and clearly shows your overall point that equities...
Silver will be weird for a while. What strong forces I see intersecting for silver: 1. Cheap money - eventually could chase assets increasing...
Here is what that kind of crown usually looks like: [ATTACH] I am not a huge collector of Ardashir. I focus more on some other timeframes of...

Like I have said many times before, if I were into US coins today I would be a EAC collector. I was a SL/Capped bust half collector before. I just...
I have never read of similar sir. You would think if this was widespread then it would have been noted more widely at the time. I know much was...
Your 10 year is taking equities near a low, your 40 year pm near a high. Both would have the tendency to overstate equity vs PM, but the flip side...
I am the same. I invest play money in PM, (like coins). I keep saying I would sell, yet even when 2011 happened I didn't. I think I am just a...
Um, I think you have the wrong person to spew this rant about. I was a Big 10 MBA adjunct Finance professor sir. I was pointing out dangers of...
Not disagreeing with your premise, just trying to point out the dates are as, if not important, than the numbers. Always challenge the dates when...
I do like those for some reason. I have been tempted more than a few times on those. In the future when premiums drop again I would like to pick...
