Oh, ho -- I did not realize that you could get that activity summary from the bidder list! Thank you for pointing that out. And, yes, the fact...
I think that you're going way out on a limb here. First of all, how do you determine who that other bidder is, now that eBay anonymizes bidder...
I rather suspect that the age of earlier halves led to more wear, period. :) I'd like to see how many AG Barbers you could fit into that tube....
To be fair, that 93% is because he's had ONE neg in his last fifteen feedbacks. If you aren't a high-volume seller, a single neg is going to knock...

This highlights an important fallacy, one that I took a while to figure out: you can't just use "silver value" (i.e., as reported on Coinflation)...
I'd forgotten about this little batch, which will be short and sweet: LOT - 20 SILVER COINS .800 DIME & QUARTER (CANADA ) I don't ordinarily...
I'm not sure that's a shame at all for those who love the coins and would like to acquire them. If you're speculating in them rather than...
To look at? I don't care. There are a host of ways to tell those fruits you mentioned apart, reliably and unambiguously. They differ not just in...
