<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Oldhoopster, post: 3129853, member: 84179&quot;]So what you&#039;re saying is that you never sent in the 1909 Lincoln or it came back something other than Matte Proof.&nbsp; No problem, I understand.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Were you treated poorly? Yes. Should that have happened? No. But this is an anonymous forum and you were disagreeing with people that have demonstrated their knowledge and expertise over and over again.&nbsp; And you had nothing to back up your end other than &quot;it looks like a matte proof&quot;.&nbsp; Unfortunately, that&#039;s what happens.&nbsp; Not only on CT but in business world as well.&nbsp; If you&#039;re the new guy and make some extraordinary claims, you better be able to back it up and better have thick skin if you can&#039;t.</p><p><br /></p><p>One final comment.&nbsp; I&#039;m not a big fan of the grammar police and will admit that I make numerous typos on my posts.&nbsp; There is something to be said about the old adage &quot;let those without sin cast the first stone&quot;. </p><p>However, grammar and spelling provide a quick assessment of potential credibility.&nbsp; You could be Albert Einstein, but if your posts look like they were written by a fourth grader, then that&#039;s how you&#039;ll be perceived. And once people have that perception, it&#039;s difficult to overcome.&nbsp; Just my opinion, but hopefully it will help someone[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
