You forget, he has fees to pay on top, so it has been a loss. Possibly be relisted me thinks

I'm already out Peck, i was looking at two different coins, now looking at one. Accumulator is thinking this one over

PM sent Steve

Well i also have my eye on another Steve and its the one i'm more interested in. The penny is £600 so if it still interests you then let me know and i'll PM you the link, oh and you won' be able to negotiate, its fixed at that price.

Whilst on the subject of proofs, i've been watching this one with a view to buying and would like opinions of it.

Well it is right now, but if Obama has his way we may join the VAT Club! LOL! BTW Dave, who awarded you the new Membership moniker (above your avaitar)...Chris? Just kidding! Ha,Ha! Lol, it was me Bob, thought i'd liven up the profile a bit as my friend keeps checking it out

Gewu, so its just Europe thats getring ripped off then

Jaggy, do you take into account the import duty when bidding? i've bought a couple of coins recently from the USA and both were sent in letter form, one was $800 and none of them sat in customs because of this, so it seems they can Open large packets/boxes etc but nothing that looks like normal Mail which has probably saved me 50 euros in tax

Gotta love how this thread rapidly evolved into ornothology, this was from a coin question. Amazing P.s Stuart, i knew it was that birdie as well

It certainly tries one's self-discipline if you tune in to the auction with no budget and no intention to spend any money! I just about managed to abstain (this time!) ... what did you win Garrett?I was lucky, i was looking at the same two coins as Garrett and missed out. Its funny, because when i've missed out i find myself scrambling around the catalogue again when i should just leave it be (which i managed to do this time)

Its perhaps not the design that people are buying them for, but instead the history of why those coins were struck in the 1st place.The sixpence did really well, if i'm correct, one had an estimate of £500-£600 and opened at £1400

Those commonwealths are doing well

It was a nice coin granted, but the price was to high for me. I was at £350 before i bailed. Jaggy, no audio Problems here. Waiting on 1 more before work

It was one i was going to bid on, but to much for me eventually Nice coin that Rob, what was the Price?

1 or 2 have went cheaper then estimate, but i was surprised at the 2 lot numbers above. The Halfcrown was nice, but not 440 quids worth, thats 530 with commission. What did you get so far Rob? Or IF you wish to divulge

Lots 2113 (440 GBP) Lot 2115( 300 GBP), did'nt see that coming............Thoughts Richard

I was never going to expect a bargain considering how the last DNW sale went and how coin sales in General this year have gone

I doubt they'd be shopping on ebay Huss lol

Thought i'd kick start proceedings. Good luck (null)

You may have both read it wrong. The Puffen browser is INSTEAD of Flash player boys. The goblin is heating up, DNW in the comfort of the water bed and Silk Black sheets, the Goblin will have to do as serving wench for now

I was'nt supposed to bidding until Mr Paisley reminded me that it was on, bid on 1 won one, my bad

Anybody win anything?

Most of you who own an Apple product will know that Flash Player is'nt compatible with iphones and ipads etc. Well i was on the saleroom today and an advert popped up on the Scrolling preview suggesting a browser called puffin which would enable an iphone or ipad to use Flash. As i don't use the Laptop much These days due to having an ipad it generally frustrated me that i could'nt watch live bidding online because of the Flash Problem, anyway, i've downloaded the puffin browser (you can have a 2 week Trial or buy for 1.99) so i went ahead and purchased it and low and behold it works a treat, so DNW live bidding from the bed in the morning, just Need a serving wench to fetch me a cuppa tea

Turn the Sound off, it helps the lag. Just a quick thought here, but with Spink stopping coin sales will that mean they'll also stop publication of the yearly Price guide? Anyone know?
