At least the members didn&#039;t tell you to spend $50+ to have in attributed so you wouldn&#039;t become upset with them if they told you the truth.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Just trying to help a new collector learn and not waste money, but you&#039;re free to believe what you want[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
