<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 282731, member: 4552"]I taped it so I could watch it over and over in case I missed something. I kept watchingto see if I could tell what the slab was. The purchaser stated to the Judge that the slab should not be opened or it would deminish the coins value. She was almost going to slam it down to open it and stated that is how much she knows about coins. From the looks of what I could make out, the slab was just one of those many, many not to popular services. I know the seller was not necessarilly the nicest guy, but he really did nothing wrong. As the Judge pointed out, the purchaser really should have read the entire add. True, he made it sound like a $20,000 coin but again, readers are leaders. Note the purchaser was also trying to get a valuable coin for a fraction of what he thought it was worth. </p><p>Things like this are common in all types of sales. Ever buy a car. I purcahsed a new car extended warantee for everything on the car. First time I had to use it I found the small print stated a $100 deductable. Missed that since I too did not read the entire thing. </p><p>I am a little puzzeled about the opening statement by the Judge to Gans. She asked him if they ever met before. He stated NO. She also stated how little she knew about coins. Then why out of all the coins on Earth did she ask him if he had anything to do with the State Quarters? He did state he was instrumental in their developement. But why did she ask about just that coin? I suspect much of that entire program was staged. Just to much that they would have the same expert there that helped write the book the purchaser brought, The expert happened to have something with the latest price of that coin, the judge mentioned only the State Quarters. Also, for those that watch that show. Ever notice they never show the entire swearing in process except for this show with Mr. Gans? They are usually carefull about that for some reason. All in all still a good show.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
