<p>[QUOTE="Numismania, post: 1972294, member: 28971"]If it came off as harsh, I certainly apologize, as my intent was NOT specifically to criticize the OP's actions. Anyone can do whatever they wish their own stuff. I was merely trying to opine that I see a number of people who DO have something of 'sentimental value', do an abrupt about-face when the items DO have a higher $$ value than the sentimental value. Hey, I'm all for taking advantage of having something that's thrown in your lap for nothing, and it turns out to be worth more than imagined. BUT, when people immediately say 'not for sale', then are swayed by $$, the words 'sentimental value' is non-existent ...if there WAS sentimental value, no $$ value should trump it. </p><p><br /></p><p>After having re-read my post, I'll admit it did sound a bit harsh, but I meant no direct animosity towards the OP, and his getting HIS items graded.
