Yep, a newbie has the bid. I hate to say it but I can't count the times I have been outbid by a newbie,paying MANY dollars over what the actual coins value is.  |

Just one more "grading company" to add to the growing list of scam companies. We now have HCGS to complement SGS, NNC, NTC, PGS, CCGS, ACG, PCI, and the hundred more one-person boiler room grading companies.
The buyer once again demonstrates the validity of Darwin's and Barnum's theorums. This will be an expensive lesson for "gawookie".

I think that Bryan is looking for some MS66's...Someone might want to let him know...lol 
What I really like is the pictures they post. Like your really able to grade a coin for yourself by looking at a dollar the size of a dime.Oh thats right,theres no need to judge for yourself,as they have taken all the worry out of it for you by using a quality grading service.  Look at the current high bidder. Another newbie about to get a expensive lesson. |

I love to say it: the buyer is one more piece of evidence that Barnum, Franklin, and Darwin were right! I have little sympathy, tolerance, nor patience for fools. |

I have a dilemma here, I collect 1878 varieties and one of the ebay sellers that regularly pushes these single person grading companies coins that I swore I would never buy from them to support them ever, well I look through 1878's everytime one is added on ebay and other auction sites (I have ebay send me emails everytime a 1878 is put up for auction) well low and behold this seller puts up a variety I have never seen before. So I am between a rock and a hard place here because I do not want to support this dealer at all but I really want this coin. Do I back down off of my moral high horse and buy the coin or do I stick to my guns and just let the coin slip away and maybe never find another one like it? I am actually thinking of just letting the coin slip away because I dont know if I could live with myself knowing I supported him pushing his junk, what would you do in this situation? I want to add, this is a R-7 coin not one you are going to find everyday Edited by Bryan1315

Bryan,
I think if its a coin you want and he is not representing it as something its not and you get it for a fair noninflated price,you should buy it.Maybe if the seller sees a buyer is willing to buy a coin for its true value and not over rated low grade coins he will start selling more of them.Your not really supporting his selling of over rated junk if you not buying his over rated junk.
Of course you can always tell him (in a friendly way) after the sale why you bought the coin and how you feel about certain coins from certain grading services.

Sheesh! That gawookie feller on those auctions sure has some money to burn. What he spent in the last week takes me a couple of months to earn and then at that I have to pay bills with most of that. Probably someone who won the lottery or a hollywood actor or something like that. I'm not bitter! Really, I'm not!  |

Oh its is just in a generic slab as a 1878 7TF has no mention of the VAM nor does the price even come close to what the R-7 coin is worth. The price is more along the lines of a raw ms-60 1878 7TF and its atleast a 64 coin even though the plastic says its alot higher grade than that |

Bryan, buy the damned coin! You're probably gonna pay a lot less than as if it were properly certified, slabbed, and authenticated, so you're not gonna be supporting a one-person grading company; you'll actually be contributing to his downfall for being stupid enough to try to peddle a coin for which he has no idea of its true nature nor value.
Go for it, Tiger!
