  1. Perhaps a setting somewhere, I'll have a butchers.
  2. I've had those Earls Court wheel tokens before! Currently I've got this. Circa 1840s Lloyds Newspaper ad. Threepence post free. The host coin, which can be identified in hand, is an 1805 Irish Halfpenny. £3.30 inc postage if anyone wants it.
  3. I can see that Paulus 'likes' your message above. I wonder what happens if I like it too.... it indicates that Paulus and I like this.
  4. No, the ePub version has no restrictions.
  5. No, you won't have to buy another. I can email it to whatever account you want, as many times as you need!
  6. I'm not sure what to try. Aldiko the latest version? I'll try on mine.
  7. Oh. Does it give a hint as to why not?
  8. Yes. Anyone else on IE for whom it is working properly, especially the quoting feature?
  9. The ePub should also look fine on a laptop. Android, hmmm, it should be easy to copy it into whatever ebook directory you have for use with whatever reader you have (I've got an Android with Aldiko). As mentioned above, small screen devices don't display fixed layout epub files that brilliantly.
  10. It could be flash/active x problem. I have the same quoting issue on IE11! The other things you mention seem to be ok., TG.
  11. Is it an iPhone? Garrett has experience getting it onto the iPhone.
  12. I can see you liked it (on full version). And if someone likes one of your posts, a notification appears by your name right at the top. And, on every page you can see a facebook 'f'/'Like' blue box below.....if you click that one, it'll register on your fb profile that you liked an 'article' and will provide a link to it and give you the opportunity to say something about it.
  13. Bugger. I'll make sure I go through this thread when preparing the new edition! In fact, it's a good place to mention these little probs that have crept in. Due to the fixed layout format of the tables and some images it does mean that the ebook version doesn't really display optimally on smaller screens. Hopefully, although the formatting may be a bit skew whiff, it should all be understandable.
  14. Aha, hang on... the like thing on the posts has nothing to do with fb! It simply shows that you like it. Try it now, limit removed.
  15. Right, it should work now (I think)! Users that also have facebook accounts can now 'like' comments here. I don't know how it works for people that don't have fb. Try it Rob, it may just state that you 'like' it. There are no doubt other features that I don't know about yet. I tried it by liking this and Rob's comment, above.
  16. It's not the hosting or anything on this side, it's a facebook thing. I'll look into it this week.
  17. Ok. These things happen don't they.
  18. Found you. I've got the original enquiry email (4/4/13) and it has a reply arrow next to it, but I don't know when I replied. The incoming messages get put in my archive folder and the sent ones get cleared out after a while, so I don't know what I replied either.
  19. I really don't see what was obnoxious about my 1st post: "They all look like scrap to me, and currently the biggest part of my coin business is buying volume pre 1947 scrap. I don't think you're likely to get anything near those asking prices for those (apart from the odd novice who may come along). And I can't really speak for the foreign coins." Anyway, what's your surname and when was the email and I'll see if I can find it.
  20. Perhaps there is the odd better-than-scrap coin among your coins, I got bored looking after the first ebid page. If you don't believe me, come back in here in six months and tell us honestly how many you sold at those prices? Sometimes they scan badly (higher grade coins) but generally low grade coins are easy to spot even in bad images. Post a few pictures here and users can respond with their best guessed grade. I have nothing against you posting here and showing us your ebid auctions. And you're also welcome to link to a website or your ebid auctions in your signature. Quoting: "not all of us have major businesses where we can buy coins from people as scrap grade them up and sell them at a massive increase at will in a completely unregulated industry some of us just have morals !" If you had any idea how hard I have worked, and how little profit I make on some coins (often after waiting ages) you wouldn't have said that. Scrap coins get scrapped, there are no scrap coins on predecimal.com. It's a waste of time trying to sell scrap coins individually. You clearly haven't got a clue, are a bit obnoxious and have a lot to learn. Not just about coins, but also how best to stay calm and not get rude for no reason. Take a deep breath. We really are a very friendly community here but fools aren't suffered lightly, and so far you are behaving like one.
  21. Hmmm, the like feature has to be linked to a special kind of facebook account, that I haven't got! I was thinking about a better fb strategy for predecimal.com. What was that account you set up Dave? Perhaps we could merge and get the 'likes' etc to work.
  22. They all look like scrap to me, and currently the biggest part of my coin business is buying volume pre 1947 scrap. I don't think you're likely to get anything near those asking prices for those (apart from the odd novice who may come along). And I can't really speak for the foreign coins.
  23. I had heard that there was also a namesake at Manchester Uni. Not me.
  24. Ok, but that means you'll have to let me know what you want beforehand as the system can't record a credit.
  25. You buy it through Amazon? The sold number just crept up by 1, so I imagine that was you! Sometimes the printed version is also on Amazon, but as it's a bit scarce, people tend to ask silly money for it. I'll refund you the money for the failed buy. And I must also remember to remove it from sale.
