Ebay is the pits when it comes to problems. Several years ago I purchased an older dual sport motorcycle for a restoration project. It had Ebay...
In my opinion, this is good advice. My wife and I haven't had a mortgage, or any other type of debt for over 20 years. We own a very successful...
I do believe the horrible lighting makes it really difficult. The Ebay seller is a coin dealer with quite a few transactions and 100% positive...
Thank you SO much for that informative post Spark. That is the kind of information I was hoping for. Not disparaging at all. It's a coin, an...
Thanks Cheech, you may be right. I do believe it is possible that some of that is a result of the lighting though. I have a large high resolution...
