In my experience, yeah -- first, the acid takes off dark tarnish (leaving the coin whiter), then it starts to etch the metal, which brings out the...
I'm afraid I still don't understand what you're getting at. Are you talking about returning an item after you've received it, or backing out of...
Oh, and please do consider getting rid of the animated avatar. It's super-distracting, especially when you've got several posts in a row.
Nope, they got a Chinese (most likely) fake for a hundred or more times retail.
I don't think it will. An oxidizing acid environment like that would dissolve away the nickel preferentially, leaving the coin more copper-colored...
Does... does that really say 'CLOACA'? (googles 'Wim Delvoye') O... kay.
Not exactly sure what you mean here, but... eBay lets sellers print postage directly from a link in the completed listing; it's convenient, and...
I feel like I understand the eBay ecosystem better than Amazon. I know how to bargain-hunt, I have a fair sense for legit vs risky listings, and I...
eBay's whims. I took heavy advantage of eBay Bucks multipliers during the big gold/silver frenzy earlier in the decade. One day, they just...

These look like scans rather than photos to me, so it might be premature to worry about the luster. That big scratch on the right reverse is...
Wish I could. RIP Joe Strummer. Meanwhile, very cool die clashes, as always!
Do fast food places hire people with a very public history of not delivering after they've been paid?
Oh, I'm pretty sure some folks here will be able to top that story...
How much you paid for it is completely irrelevant to what it's worth today, and to what it will be worth at any point in the future. (One caveat:...
Yeah, but again, that loses you all the category searchers. I have no idea how much it impacts actual viewership; I suppose I should run a couple...
Except in @Garlicus' mailbox. Do you think that after two years his hundred-plus dollars are yours to keep, along with the silver you never...
In all the world, there's no other like it.
Listing as a single large lot would cost less than listing the coins individually. Listing more than I think 100 coins per month would start...
Sounds like GOOD luck to me. They told you everything you needed to know about their business practices right up front.
