<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ByzantiumBabe, post: 7019056, member: 118394&quot;]Can you please clarify why this is &quot;an understandable mistake&quot; to ask a question?</p><p><br /></p><p>One function of this forum appears to be educating the next generation of ancient coin collectors and helping with their questions. With due respect, it makes no sense to suggest questions should only be asked after a potential costly mistake is made. When a for-profit business publicly places a product for sale, makes a French comment, questions should be raised and asked prior to the purchase. In my humble opinion, this should be encouraged, not censured. A very large percentage of consumers read online reviews before buying a product. Why not an auction product? Like it or not, in the complex, cavalier and confusing world of ancient coin grading and ever growing business of online auctions worldwide, novice and advanced collectors want reassurance before committing to a purchase or placing a bid.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
