It might be a well-meaning effort to contribute to the forum. Or it might be yet another approach by that guy [?] who kept spinning up new...
Teflon's good against almost anything, but it's not rubber. :) I didn't realize butyl and polysulfide were acetone-resistant. That's good to...
Not immediately, but the acetone will swell the rubber, ruining it in short order. And if the rubber contains any sulfur (as most rubber does),...
For what? Coins we're thinking of buying? Coins we're thinking of getting graded so we can sell them? Varieties? Errors? Problem coins?
I got started when my brother (six years older than me) did, probably with coins from our grandparents. I couldn't have been more than five or...
The price of palladium in 1980 (monthly average) ranged from $150 to $270, meaning that spot price for that brick at the time would have been...

Handling returns entails significant expense. If you say you accept returns, you're effectively offering to sell coins on approval. That's very...
Hard to blame them, when the OP is such a master. :devil:
Not in my experience. I've nabbed dozens of such items this year, and only one turned out fake. As for "stolen", there's obviously not much of a...
Not sure of size/shape/composition, except that I'd probably not want anything much smaller than the current dime or larger than the current...
If you're looking for opportunities, hang out in the "newly listed" Buy It Now list. People sometimes list things for much less than they're...
Please follow up on the half cent when you can. The problem you describe sounds exactly like the "whitish haze" that Doug warns about when...
I think that's not exactly what happened. Each of the auctions says "This listing was ended by the seller because the item is no longer...
