Every dealer within 200 miles of Cincinnati use Grey Sheet. All the major shows I've attended with hundreds of dealers from coast to coast also...
Charmy, Like you, I live in a nice neighborhood with nice houses....but we did have a problem a few years back with my son's car getting broken...
You're lucky, it does happen. I've found quite a few nice AU-MS RED Wheats while searching boxes.
Really, you can cry and complain, but ebay will do nothing unless the item is relisted. Per the rules, the seller has a right to "cancel the...
Seems like Morgans are the most guilty here. They are always bag marked and hit on the obverse, then you flip the coin the reverse is nearly...
