<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BooksB4Coins, post: 2120099, member: 36230&quot;]While glad this one is working out for you, please forgive me for not tiptoeing around the elephant in the room... this &quot;buy&quot; was a poor, poor decision on your part. I located the original listing, and all I can say is wow!Did you bother looking at this person&#039;s completed sales or read through their feedback? I am guessing not because, well, let&#039;s just say red flags galore. Had you done so you would have seen that the seller just happens to have a number of damaged keys/better dates and/or gets an awful lot of feedback on returns. Had all this not been enough to turn you away, perhaps the fact that the seller provided only one obverse photo taken at a steep angle, with no reverse photo, should have been.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now please understand that I am not trying to be mean, but it seems as though this &quot;purchase&quot; was based upon the very human desire for a deal, and is a fine example of why it can be so dangerous. While buying raw withthe intent of getting slabbed can be done, it is not something just anyone can do; it takes knowledge, experience, and sometimes a little luck,especially with coins such as this one. Anyway, I think it is clear that if you want a 16-D Merc, at this point you would be wise to buy already slabbed, preferrably from a reputable source, or at the very least seek out advice before you bid. This could have been a rather costly mistake, and I do hope you will learn from it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
