<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rugen, post: 66147, member: 422&quot;]<b>thanks sjnebay</b></p><p><br /></p><p>Thank you for mentioning the possible contract NGC has with one of the TV shopping networks.&nbsp; I do not believe all the SAE MS 69 and PF 69 coins the shows sell are gotten by let&#039;s just say, honest means.&nbsp; When they have them for sale for over a year, and they even runs tapes of their shows offering the same coins for sale, let&#039;s just say I am a little skeptical of the show, and scared of NGC&#039;s practices.&nbsp; Some graded SAE&#039;s have lasted in their inventory for over a year, with what they say are limited supplies.&nbsp; How many times have we heard &quot;the coins are flying out of here, and there is a wait on the phone lines.&quot;&nbsp; I don&#039;t believe they could get this many 69&#039;s to keep selling over and over again.&nbsp; It just appears funny to me.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Another thing about the tv shopping shows that strikes me as odd.&nbsp; They are now really hawking the scarcity of the new Bison Nickels.&nbsp; Does anyone know where Bison Nickels are scarce or valuable?&nbsp; Maybe in Japan.&nbsp; I have takled to folks all over the US. and the Bison&#039;s are not scare.&nbsp; Even one person here on Coin Talk was giving them away to his co-workers to maybe peak their interest in coin collecting.&nbsp; Scare, I think not. The mint still has the Bison&#039;s for sale.</p><p><br /></p><p>And let us not forget the Binion Dollars that one TV shopping network sold for almost year.&nbsp; Remember the inventory was constantly limited. After that network ceased to sell them another shopping network starts selling what I call &#039;culled&#039; Binion Dollars.&nbsp; Much lower graded Binion Dollars than the first network had for sale.</p><p><br /></p><p>I simply watch the shows now for any interesting info I could research and use.&nbsp; I keep my Red Book handy.&nbsp; I never purchase from tv shows.&nbsp; By they way there is a new coin show on Direct TV Channel 236 (or there abouts) on Wednesday nights.&nbsp; The announcer does more talking than selling.&nbsp; There is also another coin show on TV SuperStore Network Channel 341.&nbsp; I haven&#039;t watch enough of Direct TV Store Channel 345 to comment.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
