[QUOTE="RickieB, post: 584407, member: 2486"]At times we all get fooled by our "thirst" to have what we hold dear to us in our hands! I too learned the hard way when I collected coins. That soon ended when advice was given to me from a Friend to this day, about knowing who you are buying from! Yes we are all subject to being fooled, even the so called "professionals" as I recently (within the last year) purchased a note believed to be CHCU by a well respected Dealer and Author, to find out it was not. He offered to buy back the note, but I declined, chalking it up to experience just like you. So sometimes, even if you know who you are dealing with, it may not turn out like you expected, that is one of the reasons I buy graded pieces now and hey, even a few of those have been wrong too! AT least they are backed by the grading company and refunding is easier! Thanks for a great post, I am sure the coin folks appreciate it! SGR[/QUOTE]
