<p>[QUOTE="jimfan0106, post: 1844736, member: 40464"]Mike-Thanks for your reply and totally understand your position, I clearly do not want the coin show podcast to turn into a sludge fest, I just thought it would make for an entertainment piece to kind of walk through not so much the TV shows and the prices, but the effect it has on our hobby in general, for example, my grandfather bought a lot of coins from mail order companies and he thought he was investing in something that would be worth a lot of money to in turn pass onto me and his other grand children, only to find out he overpaid by a lot and some of the items held no real value, just was put into a nice holder with some graphics, etc. For this reason, he left the hobby and was very disenfranchised with the coin collecting. Thankfully, he did pass the bug to me and I am a bit more educated on what to buy and what to pass by. I find your podcast very good and look forward to it when its available. Keep up the good work!</p><p><br /></p><p>jimfan![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
