I see in Numismatic News that Whitman has the Cherrypickers guide out now!! It said that you can check www.whitmanbooks.com but I went and couldn't find it..... I want to order a copy but am out of funds right now :computer: Speedy
I'm sorry you feel that way--- Why say it unnecessary when you don't even know what it is???? This is a book that coin collectors have been waiting on for about 5+ years......they said it would be printed up years ago but put it off and off and lots of people have been wating on it. That is why I posted---now that it is out they will be able to get the book. Speedy
Alright guys----cut it out. The Cherrypickers Guide is a guide to coin die carietyies ----errors of a kind.... Speedy
Speedy, I feel the same way. I searched up-down and all over the whitman books site and could never find it. All I want is the price to see if I can get it now.
I goes from Dime-Comm's..... I called Whitman today and they said that yes they had done the ad saying it was out now....but no one can order it till Aug.... Speedy
Don't ask me The ad says how they have just gotten the book out and to go to the website or call for details....and when I called the lady said that it wasn't for sale will August..... Speedy
This book has been the subject of consumer fraud allegations for over 3 years. Some Prepaid over 3 years ago for this book. Both Fivaz and Stanton are authorities. It was a fight over who would put up the money to publish. One said he gave his research over to the other, and waited for the book to be published....... This is how I remember the "Cherrypickers" fight from over 3 years ago.........
I'm gonna venture that there won't be another edition following this one if what you say is the case (unless one of the men passes away). It just sounds like too much animosity to me.
