I would recommend these two anytime. I also bought once years ago from Paul Sims. I lived like literally 10 miles away from him and so I asked if I could come by and pick up my purchases to save on shipping. Whomever I spoke with said yes, and when I got there, they looked very annoyed with me. Why are you here? You should have them shipped, etc. Luckily I wrote down the name of the guy. They let me in and while he was writing up the bill , I looked at my coins. They all seemed nice but then I was not as well known to the grading part of coins, so not sure if I got any sliders--hell I do not remember what I even bought anymore...lol But I know they were not knowledgable at all. I had ordered a 1913 Buffalo nickel. He had out in front of me a 1913 $5 Gold. I told him he had the wrong coin, pointed to it. He looked at the bill, said nope it is right. Told him no, he said, I know coins, and you are still a novice. I was ****ed, so I shut up deteremined to get a nice gold coin for a cheap price. That is when his supervisor came by and looked at the bill, and said, hey, you gave him the wrong coin. I laughed and he looked annoyed. Almost had a great coin, even when gold wasn't worth **** then--lol[/QUOTE]
