<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BooksB4Coins, post: 2430097, member: 36230&quot;]Yes, I see that; after someome pointed it out in the other anti-GSC rant, you indeed edited it. At least you&#039;re now familiar with the correct term.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Unfortunately, nothing is being mixed up here; it&#039;s all loud and clear, sir. You, as many thousands before you, bought raw with the super slick and certainly never tried before (har har) idea that you&#039;d submit and reap the rewards, yet predictably failed, and now want to blame all on the seller when the painful fact is this isn&#039;t on GSC, but on you. Please, don&#039;t sit here and poo poo about how the coins were claimed to be this or be that, and present yourself as the poor faultless victim; you&#039;re not. You, as an, ahem, &quot;<i>dealer</i>&quot; aiming only for that profit, have the <i>responsibility</i> to KNOW WHAT YOU&#039;RE BUYING. It&#039;s one thing for a collector, and particularly a new one, to make such a foolish move, but since this was for a supposed &quot;<i>business</i>&quot;, you deserve no sympathy whatsoever.</p><p><br /></p><p>And please... don&#039;t give me this crap that &quot;<i>NO online photo can give anyone an indication of quality</i>&quot;; it&#039;s utter nonsense and nothing more than an attempt to deflect responsibility. Photos may not be an across-the-board substitute for in-hand viewing, but they absolutely CAN give an indication of quality, and this includes GSC photos. Perhaps, and in all seriousness, if you actually knew how to grade, and understood all that comes with it, you would realize this. </p><p><br /></p><p>There are inherent risks when buying raw, and no matter who you purchase from, yet you don&#039;t seem to think this doesn&#039;t apply to you. Again, buying raw, submitting, and reaping the rewards, particularly when one doesn&#039;t know how to grade, is a sucker&#039;s bet, and one that&#039;s been tried countless times by everyone from dreamy-eyed wannabe dealers to deal-seeking newbie &quot;experts&quot; and everything in between. It&#039;s been happening for many years now and without a doubt will continue for many, many more; as long as there&#039;s a draw to what seems like easy money, fools will, regretably, continue to part with theirs. You can claim it was all just a little test or that I&#039;m a big meaning for saying this, but the clear fact is that you fell squarely into the trap set for buyers just like you, and the sooner you realize and accept this, the better off you and your wallet will be.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
