After ranting about Barber Half, I can't believe I got one after 6 months    Currently, ebay is offering 20% off up to $50 on David Lawrence auctions. This means that a coin that cost $250 can be purchased for $200. http://stores.ebay.com/David-Lawrence-Rare-CoinsI offered $325 on $385 Barber Half, AU53 PCGS, and automatically accepted. At Paypal checkout, $325 - $50(max) = $275 paid for Barber Half. A great looking coin at a great price, IMO.  This 20% off offer expires 2/20. (PRESDAY) at checkout.

Congrats. Can you post pics of the coin you bought?
I do recall asking this seller some questions at one point. I believe he sells a number of coins on consignment, so that is why there may be limited wiggle room on BIN sales...he's selling for others.

I just purchased a SLQ from this dealer. I'll chime in on what condition actually is compared to coin in hand when it arrives.

I purchased a coin from M. Barr. Coins. I am satisfied with it, and it looked better than the images posted by the seller.

Nice pickup Joe! Quote:Currently, ebay is offering 20% off up to $50 on David Lawrence auctions. This means that a coin that cost $250 can be purchased for $200. I clicked on their page but I don't see anything that says 20% off. Was that a one day flash sale? One a side note, I'm not surprised DL would be offering discounts. The reserves on their coins for the series I follow have been ridiculous during the last few months.

The code is PRESDAY at the Paypal checkout. If you scroll down, you will see participating sellers, and David Lawrence is #35. https://www.ebay.com/rpp/6191?_trkp...165751633279

So theoretically for items that have both a "Buy-It-Now" and "Best Offer" option, the seller can accept a best offer lower than the buy-it-now price, then you could still enter the discount code?

Thanks for the heads up on this, everyone!
Picked up a PCGS VF-20 1897-S Barber Half from this seller and saved $110 from the original buy-it-now price. Good find!

I have bought many coins from him. In fact, I have four half dollars in the mail from him right now. He is a good seller. The pictures make the coins look worse than they actually are. If I am going to buy a barber half, it will probably be from him. Good prices, good product
