This was a "cheap MS-65" when I bought it. Now it's a burial, but that's the way the market has been for several years. [ATTACH]
No. All I ask is that if you post up a link to change the password, you should provide that service to your customers, or announce that the...
It ruined my usual banter with other football fans this weekend, which does not add any dollars to the “PCGS goodwill account.” If you want the...
This one more example of how mint policy alienates collectors. They had an arcane system for selling these things to people who jumped through...
If they really only wanted the passwords to be changed, why did they block the email mechanism to change them? You can’t change you password...

True, but there will be very few 1796 dimes in those weekly sales. If there are, they will be terrible, almost beyond recognition. In the old...
When I go to a big show, I have a group of dealers I see first. Then I see the secondary list dealers. Who makes these lists? They are guys who...
The standard procedure is to send you emails on a regular basis to keep you involved. The emails will not stop until the day after the auction...
