<p>[QUOTE="Cascade, post: 3186168, member: 75984"]Whoa. What's the attacks all about? I didn't post this to make any sales here. I'm always interested in gaining numismatic knowledge outside of my area of expertise. Just because someone doesn't collect ancients, and will probably sell most that they are looking for info on, some of you guys get upset and don't want to help??? That's incredibly petty and rude. In my area, VAMs, we get similar questions from newbies to our arena but we don't berate or belittle them. We help them! It's great because they show interest and if they start making money on them they come back and back and most become collectors / forum members. If this is how you treat outsiders looking for info, how do you honestly expect to gain new memebers and be anything more than a show and tell echo chamber? Maybe, just maybe, you are shooting yourselves in the foot with that kind of logic. I didn't post I was going to sell any.. I was asked!.. And quite surreptitiously on your part I might add, [USER=56859]@TIF[/USER]. Bad form bro. I kind of like ancients and maybe I'll dive into them and ancient politics a bit more in the future but with your attitude and tricks, if I was a newbie and not a confident experianced numismatist, I would probably think this isn't a community I would want to be a part of... So I'm sorry to "waste" your time and mine, Ancient Dudes. I guarantee it won't happen again, at least not here. Or maybe it will just so I can expose the backhanded nature of some here.</p><p><br /></p><p>And [USER=19463]@dougsmit[/USER], I never asked to set up my sales. Either overtly or covertly. No "tricks" were being played by me. Heck, I might not end up selling any of them. Get off your high horse bro. </p><p><br /></p><p>[USER=70832]@Aidan_()[/USER], LOL, I know right.
