  1. Either do i, you'd expect to pay around £120 ish for a top grade, but £156 for that rubbish is plain Crazy plus his EF grade is a little wide of the mark. The acorns are flat, but you know what they say, fools and their money are soon parted and there's plenty of fools on ebay.I often wonder if its just the ebay sellers with large feedbacks that these idiots run to as we see with sellers like saxbys, people never seem to question grades or what the coin actually is when its a powerseller
  2. A hunk or not Bob, its still better than the Disc in the next lot which has a larger estimate. Still Makes no sense too me
  3. George V coinage is always notoriously difficult due to the poor dies. Getting a very early strike is always the way too go
  4. I also noted a couple of lots in this sale which don't make any sense, lot 1915 an open 3 1863 penny graded as Fine, estimate £100-£150 the next lot 1916, same coin but graded as VG, estimates £175-£225 how does that work? Then we have lots 1405 and 1406 both 1902 Crowns both exact same grades and descriptions yet 2 different estimates
  5. Please play the Video, this is quite some speech, its not political, rather than General of what's happening in todays Society http://michaelgreenwell.wordpress.com/2014/05/09/play-this-everywhere/
  6. This Popped up on my Facebook feed from a frind of mine. It might interest some of you http://www.ukcouponing.co.uk/free-family-friends-railcard-valid-until-31st-july-2014/ (null)
  7. So from my above post regarding fleabay, i Shall Quote their return policy. Most Buy It Now purchases are protected by the Distance Selling Regulations, which allow you to cancel the purchase within seven working days after the day you receive the item. Find out more about your rights as a buyer and exceptions . I had a buyer who bought an item and then started a dispute 35 days later, YES 35 days. It was shipped to a UK address but during the dispute i noticed he/she had been using American spelling and found out the coin was shipped to the USA, so ebay in their infinate wisdom decided against me, even after the buyer had, had the coin for 35 days. Absolute fecking joke
  8. Funnily enough if you win something on the German eBay it technically becomes your propery the minute the auction has ended. Apparently Germany has outstripped the USA for suing people. I also refuse to bow to morons for a fiver profit, eBay is just full of morons and keybord idiots who want you to beg and plead so they won't give you a negative, a bit like a dog begging for a treat, unfortumately i don't beg or play those games and make sure they know it
  9. Depends on what you want. The coin has wear on the bust and digs on the chin and still discoloured, i'd say EF, but some people are fussy when its their coins and not so fussy when its someone elses, you decide if its for you. I reckon about £150 region
  10. That makes a lot of sense. Unfortunately very few links are working on that page - Ancients, Records & Videos, appear to be the only two left. Maybe the whole thing will be updated when he has himself organised, he says he's just bought a bündle of pennies, so he has to sell them somehow/somewhere
  11. Personally i'd be put off with the discolouring across Eddies cheek and the wear to the hair just below the ear. Personally i do like the 1902 Crown, i'm still waiting on an UNC or Matte proof to come along at the same time as i have spare £££££s although Matte proof would be better for me, it would sit alongside my halfcrown of the same date
  12. I think a problem free EF is up at £180, they seem to be popular just now.
  13. The one on the left also seems to have a thinner border with smaller teeth/beads
  14. Been watching this today and was wondering what the general thoughts on this coin are regarding grade http://www.the-saleroom.com/en-gb/auction-catalogues/baldwins/catalogue-id-2898988/lot-21867740
  15. There's been a lot of those Gold Bars on ebay
  16. Everyone seems to have great condition coins, the fact these appear without pictures helps no one, so if you can post pictures of your coins and then people can help you, otherwise we're pissing in the wind
  17. Now its getting a little more interesting. The 1st newspaper to come out in Support of the yes campaign http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2014/may/04/sunday-herald-declares-yes-for-scottish-independence Read the comments, there's one or two from England who were quite unbiased in their commemts.
  18. Or not bother listing anything at all. Sooner or later they're going to stop playing god and let the sellers have their say, or else it's going to start squeezing their Profits
  19. Well thats a bugger, its the NSA, not the CIA you Need to watch out for
  20. Lol, just goes to show their stupidity Rob. I was offered free listings after i took their Survey after a dispute. During the Survey i repeated in each answer how f¥+*@!g stupid and ignorant they are towards sellers, and so they believe that in giving you a free listing it will make everything all better. All its done is made me decide not to sell on there again due to their policy of a buyer is ALWAYS correct and the seller can go bite the big one even though as a seller i helped pay their wages. Never again
  21. Have you read the auction pies?
  22. Getting outbid is just ridiculous
  23. Ok i hold my Hands up tis i who am winning ye olde Tower of London type thingy ma jig
  24. Business can't be good
