Anyway, yesterday after seeing a Movie at Union Square I ran down to Barnes and Noble and went to find a copy of Coin World. It was in the Magazine section, which is seridiptiously located RIGHT NEXT to the section of books on Sex, near the coffee shop on the second floor. The place was swarming with young women who had NO interest in coins. In the end this thing ended up costing me more that $200 to pick up, but I'll leave it for the reader to figure out how. (see the bottom) In any event, I got the first Coin World in my hands now and I'm wondering if Con World Vets these hundreds of dealers in this magazine? Or is it a crapshoot. Ruben ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Because I ended up getting a Current Pharmacology book called Goodman and Gilman's "Applied Pharmacological Thearaputics" when I relized that all those college kids ment that they probably carried this important medical text book! Not what you thought (nor what I might have hoped).
Well, it depends on how you wish to define "vets". Coin World does have certain standards that they require advertisers to maintain in their ads. And they also require all advertisers to go through an approval process before ads are accepted for publication. You can read what these standards and processes are for yourself on the Index for Advertisers page and make your own judgment. The page number is listed in the table of contents of each issue. That being said, there are good ones and there are not so good ones IMO.
