I'm sorry but I just can't see your concept anymore . You seem to be buying everything you see no matter what price or eye appeal that you come across . I know you mentioned this once before that you buy coins that you like . That's fine and dandy , but that's not going to benefit you in the long haul . I think I once mentioned to you if you would hold off on buying cheap common coins every day you can put a week or two worth of savings into a real nice uncirculated coin that will hold up in value . We all know your not a Newbie ,the only reason I keep informing you of your binge buying is because I was the same way when I first started collecting coins . I bought everything and anything solely because it was cheap . Now I'm here 55 years later with a crap load of cheap circulated coins  I honestly don't want you to fall into that way of collecting . A lot of guys here will say , oh leave the guy alone and let him buy what he wants ! That's not me ! Aren't we here to help and steer fellow members into making the right choices . And what road they take now would benefit them in the future . There's nothing wrong with buying what you like as long as you see yourself trying to put together a real beautiful set of high grade coins .N.S. Hope you understand where I'm coming from . I shoot straight ; Your friend T-BOP .  Proud Member of The Black Sheep Squadron !

NS marches to his own drummer for sure. I disagree with his "value" approach and would not buy many of his choices at any price. But having said that, he's a thick-skinned guy who keeps us busy and actually seems to solicit honest comments. Not many of us could take that day after day.  Edited by Coinfrog

T-BOP, I do consider you my coin collecting friend, and as I've said before, I value your opinion although we don't agree all the time - or most of the time - or almost never.  Having said that, your extra "help" in building my coin collection feels sometimes like the Jehovah's Witnesses that knock on my door, constantly offering to save my soul from heck - but more often. I gotta say T-BOP, for a bunch of guys (and gals - I think there may be a few) hanging out, shooting the breeze about coins, it would be a lot less interesting and less fun if you weren't around. Hope your recovery is going well. Your friend, NS
