I always laugh hysterically when Mike goes off on the "Red Oak Presentation Box" :)

I laughed tonight when Mike was touting how rare their 1976 complete bicentennial set was... all the eisenhowers, kennedy's, and washington quarters- pds and s silver including var 1 and var 2 for $169.95. It was pretty laughable. I missed the rest of the show though so I don't know what else they were gouging people on tonight. But every once in a great while they may have a deal that's worth examining but rarely.

As a side note, I have DirectTV newly (well within the last month or so anyways). The coinvault on 227 is interesting to watch when its on. They are just as bad as the other shows though. However, they will sell hoards of morgan/peace dollars like 100 at a time for around $2400 which isn't a terrible price. And sometimes they'll have lots of 10 morgans/peace dollars for $250 which again isn't to terribly bad...but man some of the other stuff they sell is outrageously high. And yeah for the most part you gotta stay far away from these places when you are looking to buy except in rare instances. I watch mostly for a good laugh.

Yes! They've been buying some strange coins recently so it will hold my interest.
Time don't fly, it bounds and leaps.

We cut our cable off in favor of streaming services years ago so I have never seen the coin vault or any of the other coin shows.
Sounds entertaining!

I think we have all been taken in by the TV pitchmen early on in our collecting experiences and we have all learned that they are not the best deals or the best quality one can get for the price they charge. Its like everything in life....We Live and Learn.

I watch these shows to get a good laugh , then I wonder how many are taken by there smooth talk.
If I see somethin that I like I hunt it in shops or internet to get it.

Sounds like a typical response, followed by accusations that the DEALER is trying to rip them off.
