Guess it depends on whether two lowball registry competitors happened upon the same auction... :rolleyes:
There was also a practice called sweating. It's a bit hard to see how that was prosecuted -- "Yes, I kept my coins in a bag. What else would I...
Don't feel bad. Out of the Nortel stock I bought around the same time, I sold some at 20% of what I paid, and rode the rest into the ground. :(...
I have nothing to add to this except STOP COPYING MY POSTS AS I'M TYPING THEM. ;)
Yep. And I'll bet the folks who sold the systems to you called it "rapid prototyping". I popped over to the Wikipedia article on 3D printing, and...
It's possible that they're requiring new accounts to use Managed Payments, with no opt-out available. I thought they were requiring it, but...
Absolutely, and the classic "high upside or nothing" play is lottery tickets. Buying and selling gold or silver retail isn't a "high upside or...
You can 3D print metals, even high-melting ones like tungsten -- but you don't get a surface that would convince anyone. Even if you printed a...
So, these are just models, descriptions of the shape of each coin. Is there any reason to think anyone has the ability to make a convincing 3D...

Does slabbing modern bullion really add that much liquidity? And is that liquidity likely to stay as counterfeit slabs get better and better?
But not platinum.
Oh, man. I was making good money at that point, and didn't have kids yet -- but I was out of the hobby. Yeah, it's kind of a shame. On the other...
The statute does talk about "receipts" and "paying" for bullion, but nothing about issuing gold or silver coin in exchange for bullion. Going...
Didn't I read somewhere that the $3 gold was tied up with the whole 3-cent stamp and trime debacle?
Just because a law is still on the books doesn't mean it's still observed or enforced. If someone did take gold to the Mint and insist on...
This will ruin your coin. So will ketchup, which has the same basic chemical attack (acid and salt).
This latest traffic prompted me to go look at PayPal's new crypto support. Apparently you can buy and sell Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin. They...
But isn't that true of most investments? I mean, a random stock can't do any worse than fall to zero, but it could go up by any arbitrary amount....
Separate names with a comma.
