    Sorry...Tis true though. That's how commercialism and economics work. When's the last time you heard, "Come on down to El Mexicano Restuaranto....Food tastes great! Gives ya diareeha that makes your &^% burn for an hour though!"

    I was giving some thought to looking at ebay for a few filler pieces. This has really shown me that National Dealer is correct when he said, to establish with a reputable dealer locally. Even as a beginner, I think that is about the soundest advice I have recieved.
    Thanks for the insight.

    No, that isn't how commerce works. That's how hucksterism works. You'll learn. I notice that you have managed to attract a grand total of 0 bidders. That's how many a weasel worded ad like that one should attract.

    I'll put a picture of the grading company slab on tonight. I'm new to the whole "business world" so I looked at it as if it were normal and not trickery. I've been burned several times on ebay and the last thing I'd want is to become another bad seller. I'm honest practically all of the time but looked at this situation differently. Sorry about that. The slab should appear within the next hour. Cheers!

    Everyone is entitled to a mistake. Rolltide, you seem to have a desire to make this hobby a business. Do not let yourself be compromised by a quick dollar. A customer that will stay with you for a long period of time because of your honesty will far outweigh the quick dollar. Make your grades conservative, treat your customers as you hope to be treated. You mentioned being burned, is this how you want your customer to feel? Coins come and go, your ethics and honesty are all you end up with.

    Excellent, rolltide. That is a good idea, sir. I would expect no less from an Alabama gentleman.
