The seller promptly refunded my money, thank goodness. This doesn't absolve eBay, though. Sometimes you see a computer error, and (if you've been...
Oh, this is so not okay. I was perusing the new Buy It Now listings this afternoon, and saw a lot of $100 FV silver quarters for $1300. I...
That's the problem. It only stops being ugly in grades I can't afford.
I'm starting to see reports that, even with gold at record high prices, the flow of gold scrap is drying up. Lots of people have already sold all...

That's double-booking. :) Either you made a big profit on the silver, or you got a low cost basis on the gold, but not both. (I'm guessing Uncle...
I paid $2215 for three eagles using my credit card -- actually, $100 or so came out of PP balance, and the rest off the CC. I got the whole amount...
1986 $50 proof Eagle that I cashed out last month. Ah, timing.
Why didn't you file Buyer Protection claims? I just got a full refund for three gold eagles (two Liberty and one Indian) that never showed up --...
This seems like an EXCELLENT application for a "virtual credit card number". My Citi MasterCard lets me set them up, and it was one of the major...
