Presidential Dollars On Coin Vault

Gary,

You really do need to do yourself a favor and watch it at some point when it is on. You will actually find yourself waiting for the next item just to see if it's a larger rip-off or not. lololol.

I must give them credit, to the unsuspecting person, they are good. I think I've only seen one or two items, including on their website, that were marked up maybe 10%. Most have been a lot more than that. I also remember hearing them quoting exact pricing that you see on the PCGS website. They didn't say it was from that site, but I was online at the time and the prices were the same as the inflated ones there....

It is an evil show



In reality it is just one more Coin Show on the television that sells overpriced coins.

If you watch any of these shows you will see that they handle coins with their bare hands.
they drop them and they make up great tales about the coins.

I spent some time watching a few of these shows during the holiday season and I did it while I had access to a computer.

Each time a coin or set of coins was put up for sale - I searched it on the internet and in EVERY case.
I found the coins selling for less with less postage.

If you like spending money these shows will certainly help you remove it from your wallet.

If you like a good laugh Watch the shows

but PLEASE be careful.


Remember these shows are informercials and not serious shows that answer questions about coin collecting.

What is Coin Vault?

---

A show on the Shop@Home network that features a couple of hucksters selling overpriced coins. The "hosts" also have other shows that sell knives and sports collectibles (probably equally overpriced)

Gary,

I just saw two of those hairless weasels pawning the Presidential dollars this morning. Two $25 roles for $99.96? If you have the money kicking around you can get $1000 face value for just shy of $2000. Supposedly the phones were ringing off the hook. With the mint required to produce a sufficient supply for actual circulation and the unlikely event that the public will actually use them for this purpose, it seems like there will be a glut of these in no time. I think that the Sac dollars will be forgotten in all this hype and be the true collectors item.

By the way, will the Presidential dollars be issued with the 2007 proof sets?

I bet they sleep real good on that mattress of money they are taking away from the people that know nothing about coins.

I stay away from the tv coin shows, except to watch once in a while when I need a good laugh. They are geared to the unsuspecting new collector and are a rip-off.

I'd say some choice words about Coin Vault but it wouldn't be very family friendly!
