I am in the same predicament just earlier on. I stopped buying coins for the most part and am working on the house. It wasn't the money as much as...
Mr. Hartill, you deserve far more praise and thanks from the collecting community than a simple collector like me can ever bestow. Your works...
I believe your assumption that they threw it in there since its "just a buck" is your own assumption. There was a case in Iowa some years back...
I should. But this is why I try to buy hardcover when possible, since I get this protection from the beginning and the book long term will be...
Or its a sign of how much I use certain volumes. I am on my second copy of CCC, the first one getting worn down to the nub, and the binding...
