<p>[QUOTE="Morgandude11, post: 4639567, member: 37839"]You came here, as a new guy on the block. That is cool, we welcome new members enthusiastically. After announcing that you are an exclusively raw coin collector, you proceeded to put down the serious, experienced collectors who do buy slabbed coins. Then, you intimated that we are not collectors, just investors. On top of that, you intimated that people who buy encapsulated coins don’t know how to grade. All I can say is WOW! If one wants to talk about prejudices and preconceived notions, you hit the jackpot! All of us acknowledged the benefits of raw coin collection, and acknowledged that there are many ways to be a hobbyist. In fact a EddieSpin and I have been good naturedly debating this issue for years. But, to come in here, as a cheap coin collector, and categorically put down a bunch of people with considerable expertise, once again, WOW! I have a reputation of being kind of feisty here, but you leave me at an absolute loss of words to describe that level of presumptuous attitude!!!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
