<p>[QUOTE="BooksB4Coins, post: 2221334, member: 36230"]I wouldn't expect this seller, who doesn't know me from Adam, to simply take my word for it, nor would I expect him to mention "facts" in his relisting I couldn't be bothered to verify. To use your Peace dollar story as an example, without knowing the person, how is one to separate this fellow's brand of "expertise" from someone like Lea's, especially if, as she suggested, one unable to research on their own? Wouldnt the obvious answer be to simply provide independent proof? </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Then you shouldn't have any trouble seeing that this isn't about expertise or knowledge, but only expectations and approach.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>And there is the difference, Jim... you KNOW her; the seller doesn't. </p><p><br /></p><p> Truth be told, I too am a little surprised by some of the posts in this thread as well. I do not believe anyone has really questioned her knowledge in this arena, yet most of the comebacks to any posts questioning her approach are worded as if they have. She is the friend of many here, and there's clearly a lot of respect for her, but this shouldn't deflect away from what's really being said. Again, no one is (or at least I'm not) questioning her motives, but am only saying that instead of expecting some unknown to take her word for it, perhaps it would be more constructive to simply provide them with independent proof, and doing so certainly would bolster any accusations of "dishonesty" if not taken to heart.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
