<p>[QUOTE=&quot;WpnsExpert78, post: 1518914, member: 34477&quot;]The obivious reason for the new people is easy, trying to find value or such. But for collectors that have been into it for awhile I would like to know you post. </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;I post here when I can and the main reason I post is to share what I found. Sometimes I post for opinions on grades and values only for curiosity. Any coin I find value in is sent away to be slabbed. Now some of my post are inquisitive only for my purpose of feeling a true value and not what a book or internet says because let&#039;s be honest neither of them are true half the time. I have been a pretty private collector of things in the past and still am for the most part. I have always bought and sold bullion, collected coins as a kids but then moved on but I have been back for awhile now and I am loving it because I am doing it with my kids.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;<p style="text-align: center"><font face="impact"><b>:stormy:<font size="6">NOW HERE COMES THE STORM</font>:stormy:</b></font></p> <p style="text-align: center"><font face="impact"><b><br /></b></font></p><p>I have various ways of getting my coins and I have always been really good at snooping things out and I think I have been able to find some pretty awesome coins and yet it disappoints me to hear so many skeptical comments and emails and though it does not bother me it does bother my 3 girls that I am trying to get into this hobby and that straight out makes me well for better terms &quot;mad&quot;. I mean I know we all need to be subjective but remember people are here for the main reason of getting help, to have fun and just to enjoy and share a hobby and to me thats what it is a &quot;hobby&quot;. I don&#039;t make a living from it and if I get a good deal I try to pass it on. I have traded, sold and bought coins from many people on here and other sites and I would hope all of them would say I am fair. Almost every coin I post I would sale or trade. When asked I almost always ask &quot;what would you give me for it?&quot; and I may turn it down or counter offer but hey that is fine. I would rather trade then have cash and to some you may ask why but it boils down to a couple of things. One I don&#039;t need the cash (I mean cash is king but I don&#039;t NEED it) and the biggest is I LIKE FOR MY KIDS TO SEE AS MANY DIFFERENT COINS AS POSSIBLE. </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;<u>And yes it was because of some negative comments or emails that may or may not have came from this site but never the less <b><span style="color: #ff0000">negative</span></b></u> and my daughters read them and one told me this morning that she didn&#039;t see the purpose because everyone is saying bad things of the coins we find. Being a Marine I don&#039;t give up, back down from a fight, I always stand behind my word and follow through with things. If I am wrong I admit and If you prove me wrong good I just learned something new today but that is ME and hopefully one day my girls will get there but for now they are just kids with a heart. So to the 2 or 3 people that are at the heart of this &quot;RANT&quot; you got to my girls and by that you got to me but it&#039;s ok.But just know today while you are being miserable posting or emailing people all your misery know that I will be out with my girls enjoying our day finding more of the great coins that we do (the same ones you &quot;few&quot; are jealous because you can&#039;t afford them) and I think I may even make some persons day by letting my daughters give one or two away just to show my girls that every coin no matter the value, condition and whatever will always make people happy. </p><p style="text-align: center"><i><b><br /></b></i></p> <p style="text-align: center"><i><b><br /></b></i></p> <p style="text-align: center"><i><b>Sorry for rant but I don&#039;t &quot;do&quot; the whole hurting my daughter&#039;s feelings well at all. To the rest of the GREAT UNDERSTANDING COIN COMMUNITY THANKS FOR ALL THE POSITIVE THINGS AND WE ENJOY POSTING FOR YOU and look forward to the next coin.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></b></i></p><p>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
