[QUOTE="TIF, post: 2476626, member: 56859"]Go for it! :) Please note though that while I (and many of us) are okay with people posting potential purchases when the coin is offered in a fixed-price setting, such as this coin, I strongly recommend against posting coins which are [I]coming up for auction[/I]. The reason: Fixed-price coins (coins for sale in webstores) are available for purchase by anyone at any time. By posting here for an opinion, you only risk harm to yourself-- the harm being that someone else sees it as a result of your post, and buys it before you do. If the coin is coming up for auction, there may be others here who are watching and planning on bidding. By giving it "free advertising" in public forum, it may cause other bidders to take interest, driving up the price or causing a forum friend to lose the coin. Another negative: if I'm targeting an upcoming auction coin and you post it here, if I win it I'll look like I "stole" it from you. If you want an opinion about a coin coming up for auction, it's best to ask a forum member by private message.[/QUOTE]
