<p>[QUOTE="jaceravone, post: 1897162, member: 9474"]Thanks Chris. I know what you were saying and didn't take offense to it. You and I go way back and you are probably one of the few people still on CT that knows me for who I am. I can't say that I haven't become cynical over the years to where the hobby has gone. I do realize that I can't stop it, and if I can't stop it, I might as well join it and reap the rewards when I can. But I also know when to draw the line and still believe in the good that is found in the hobby. Not to toot my own horn, but if I don't do it, who will? Here are some excerpts from an ebay email exchange from a collector who didn't know any better. They do now and are grateful for it. These were their last two messages to me. Of course, what you don't see is in between the two messages...and there were more than just two....but in between both of those, I explained why these coins were going for so high. I lost out on a potential sale, but I slept awesome too. By selling coins, I am effectively becoming a dealer, and if I am dealing, I also believe that we need to do our part in educating our customers. We will only help to grow the hobby instead of suppressing it. </p><p><br /></p><p>Dear jaceravone,</p><p><br /></p><p>Joe thank you very much for the info.
