twohawks Pillar of the Community United States 1551 Posts	Posted 10/16/2013 7:47 pm Tony, what has been said is all correct as I knew it would be. Welcome to CCF as well V W ! Something to keep in mind is over there many questions have been asked so many times the a few members may have a short fuse. It's just part of life and you can place "Key Words" in the search box and do a bit of research on your own from time to time. I myself would like to to both worlds! Report this Post to the Staff
SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 10/16/2013 10:15 pm VAMworld is Ground Zero for VAMming, but it's honestly not a place I'd recommend for someone just getting into VAMming. Report this Post to the Staff
twohawks Pillar of the Community United States 1551 Posts	Posted 10/17/2013 10:29 am Dave, I would agree 95% of the time on this. Some of the fishes over there have teeth! Lord knows I made my share of errors over there when I started. Edited by twohawks 10/17/2013 6:19 pm Report this Post to the Staff
dave700x Rest in Peace United States 10625 Posts	Posted 10/17/2013 10:56 am I recommend everyone interested in VAMming should at least lurk over on VAMworld. I still do. Report this Post to the Staff

No, but his intensity can be scary sometimes, and he's singlehandedly ruining E clashes for the rest of us because he not only seems to want them all, but he also seems to be successfully finding them all. VAMworld's status as the "high ground" for VAMming is one of the reasons for the existence of this forum. It's our intent here to deliberately welcome and nurture the new VAMmer, helping to relieve VAMworld of that burden. It's a Godsend that there's been cross-pollination the other way - VAMworld regulars also posting here - but we don't want this forum to duplicate or in any way take from what's happening at VAMworld.

I read that as his "insanity" can be scary at times! Quote: @Westcoin, I had a pleasant discovery the other day going through my Morgans I purchased a long time ago. (pre VAMming days) It's a 1878-S VAM27 in maybe EF40 condition. Very cool Dave - wonderful find!! "Buy the Book Before You Buy the Coin" - Aaron R. Feldman - "And read it" - Me 2013!

7TF Pillar of the Community 743 Posts	Posted 10/20/2013 7:32 pm I was going to mention you to Russ. There are a few other guys that are also very helpful. This is one of the guys you should watch out for. Just kidding. But seriously all is not as it appears over there sometimes. Edited by 7TF 10/20/2013 9:12 pm Report this Post to the Staff
