<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Prime Mover, post: 1547887, member: 38783&quot;]My mom was the classic example of this.&nbsp; As I&#039;ve been looking through her stuff, I found plenty of obscenely overpriced Morgans and others, all from a place which I guess back in the day was simliar to a CoinVault type of thing.&nbsp; She paid (back then in the late &#039;80s/early &#039;90s) $199 for a cleaned Peace Dollar, worth only about melt value these days.&nbsp; She spent a fortune on a lot of coins that weren&#039;t worth it, but they all had good sales pitches like that.&nbsp; They always hyped the &quot;rare, buy now and it&#039;ll only increas in value since they&#039;re not making any more&quot; lines.</p><p><br /></p><p>The worst was the subscription for those &quot;22k gold plated&quot; stamps.&nbsp; Probably well over $10k invested in something that was absolutely worthless, yet hocked as something that was real gold.</p><p><br /></p><p>I can only image how much more could have ended in the collection for the same amount of money spent if she actually had a clue as to what she was really getting for her money.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
