: I'm getting sick and tired of people calling me a cheat because I don't
: know anything about collecting coins. I've sold half of my collection,
: just over the weekend, to dealers who responded to my ad on the net.
: So if I'm such a cheat and liar,
: and I'm screwing people over the way you're accusing me of doing,
: why haven't I had any complaints? If you have any idea whatsoever of
: what you're talking about, then why did these three DEALERS take the
: chance to buy these coins from me? 

Whhhooooaa!!  Slow down there, nellie...   we aren't calling you a cheat
or a liar or whatever...  you completely missed the point.  We were 
concerned over your lack of information, and when you went off when I
suggested that people ask for a grade on the coins, it only added
to the concern.  It only seems natural that someone having nothing to
hide would have given at least an approximate grade, or at least, if not
a grading...  a person with nothing to hide wouldn't have shouted:
'ignorant flame' and such to someone just suggesting that someone check
up on the person selling.


: I can only assume that you're some network police wannabe who has
: nothing better to do than to flame people in a lame attempt to make
: their lives as miserable as yours. But nothing you're saying holds
: any water, so please take your dementia someplace else, perhaps your
: shrink, and leave me the hell alone!


Like I said...  look at the above.   The original reply post was simply
a suggestion that nobody should buy coins without knowing a grade...  look
at the type of reply you are giving.  Your flippant replies, and short
comments only make it appear MORE that you are responding that way for a
reason.  A person with *nothing* to hide would not have been offended
by a suggestion to check a coin grade before buying.  *THAT* is where 
it seems you may be hiding something, and *THAT* is what gives you the
appearance of being a little less than honest.  (even though I *never*
called you a liar, or a cheat.)

I am glad that some people agree with me...

BTW, you should give the names and e-mail addresses of those
dealers that bought from you...  I have got a whole piggy bank
full of pennies that are probably worth thousands to them.  <BG>
