<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1669516, member: 112&quot;]LOL ! I really did laugh out loud when I read this thread this morning.</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s all been said a hundred times before, and most has been said again already right here in this thread. But to answer questions I&#039;ll respond with the short version.</p><p><br /></p><p>No, I do not own or collect coins anymore. But I spent most of my life collecting and studying coins, and I still study coins every single day. And xGAJx, if you&#039;d like to see some of the coins I used to collect, at least those I collected most recently, just click on my name, go to my Profile page, and look at albums I have listed there.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for slabbed coins, yes, I have bought thousands of them. And no, I never cracked any out. But over the course of my life I also bought thousands of raw coins, some of them rather expensive by most standards. </p><p><br /></p><p>I was able to do this, without risk, because of two things. 1 - my knowledge of coins,&nbsp; and 2 - because of 1 very simple rule that I always followed. It&#039;s actually the same rule that everyone should follow but few do. That is to only buy coins from people who know coins and who you know and trust. If you do that, you&#039;ll never have to worry if the coin is slabbed or raw.</p><p><br /></p><p>Why will you never have to worry ? It&#039;s easy, because if, on the rare occasion, there ever is a problem you can return the coin and get your money back. Follow that 1 simple rule and you&#039;ll never have to worry if a coin is slabbed or raw either.</p><p><br /></p><p>And make no mistake, if you don&#039;t know coins yourself, you have to worry just as much about the slabbed coins as you have to worry about the raw coins. That rule applies to all coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
