Long Beach show a great show for me and boycott of eBay for sellersstarts today
although I acquired some terrific items for inventory, the eBay
listings boycott starts today and runs thru next Saturday, so I will not post anything for a week. Although eBay's rate hikes affect mostly coins priced under $1000 and those with eBay stores, I am joining the boycott out of solidarity with my fellow eBay sellers. I did, buy a bunch of better date Lincolns such as a 1925-S, 1924-D, 1909-S Lincoln in MS-65 RD and MS-66RD, others. Also bought a real nice 1799 Large Cent in VF20 and a VF-25 1804 large cent. Also a Proof-53 Gobrecht Dollar original, one of the 600 struck for circulation in 1837 (medal turn), an EF 1800 draped bust half dime and a 16 star 1796 half dime, a VF25 1804 quarter (rare) some nice capped bust dimes, a magnifiecent 1928 Peace Dol that looks like a solid MS-65 but resides in a MS-64 PCGS holder. TWO 1856 Flying Eagle Cents, the rare S-4 with about 25 known and a nice EF-45 a scarce VF-25 1801 Half that looks like a solid VF-35, and much more. All except the 1799 1c are PCGS graded, the 1799 residing in an NGC holder. I plan to list them l a week from today, Feb. 24th. Contact me privately if any of these are of interest. Ira |

See? Like any other racket, eBay is going to BURN everyone involved in
it eventually ... literally. That's why I scoff laughingly at those who swear by it, because I know that their kind of loyalty is highly flammable. |

Ira Face it, Ira's basic M.O. is to buy "tweeners" and to attempt to sell them at the higher grade. Lots of people try to do this; hopefully most of them also have day jobs or a retirement check. Of course, it's most effective to try to do this with modern U.S. coins that feature BIG PRICE JUMPS between each grade point (the 1916 Standing Liberty Quarter is a superb example). If Ira can find another dealer who can't "move" a "tweener", he might be able to get the piece really cheap too; so much the better. Then Ira pours on the hype hype hype on ebay and RCC. Ira drips with the old school chutzpah, for sure. Caveat emptor, oly |
