    Hello forum members. Was channel surfing a few minutes ago and saw where HSN is selling 1986 ASEs certified by ANACS as MS70 for the "rock bottom" price of 399.95 plus shipping. Say what?! Sad part about it is they will possibly sell out of those coins at that price. A little numismatic education on the buyers part beforehand would really help. Any thoughts?

    I can't bring myself to waste my time watching shows like that.

    I agree absolutely with that. Just stayed there long enough to catch their sales pitch on that coin. If nothing else better is showing I will spend a little time (but no money) watching Rick Tomascka but even that gets old after a while.

    Too bad I missed Mike tonight. I was looking for a few good laughs.

    HSN NEVER accurately prices coins. I watched their coin sales pitches a couple of times and couldn't imagine who would purchase a coin from HSN for 5-10x what it is worth, however, apparently someone does believe that $400 is "rock bottom".

    It seems like HSN most valued customers are those who have dollars, but no sense.

    That would be a great price if it was PCGS or even NGC. ANACS ones generally sell more in the $200-300 range

    Go to the bank and visit the ATM. Withdraw $200. Return home. Flush $180 down the toilet.

    Same result...

    Yes, don't buy from them.

    And believe me you aren't describing anything we haven't noted and discussed many many times.
