<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ken Dorney, post: 2424810, member: 76086&quot;]Well, I havent hit 50 yet so I cant be that old!&nbsp; However, I do remember the good old days.&nbsp; One would have to enter sometimes hundreds of bids, bidding blindly and not know what the result was until you got either a package or an invoice.&nbsp; Many times I sweated it out waiting for results not knowing if I went over my budget or not.&nbsp; I remember one mail bid auction in the late 80&#039;s, just a collector selling his stuff himself.&nbsp; I won every item I bid on as he just didnt have much of a mailing list.&nbsp; I remember getting several sestertii including Galba, Nero, Vespasian, etc.&nbsp; All nice VF or better to the tune of about $650 (about 10 coins).&nbsp; That was a fortune for me back then and I was barely able to pay the bill.&nbsp; Some of those same coins today are fetching about $1,500 each.&nbsp; Too bad I sold them all back then![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
