VAMWorld 2.0

The world is full of beauty, I'm sure glad that I am able to see and appreciate some of this beauty.

San Francisco Long Nocks 26 27 56 57 58 59 60 62 72 See that the San Francisco Long Nocks include both 26 (17th non-prime) and 59 (the 17th prime), while 58 is a combination of the first 7 primes up to 17. The remaining six (27 56 57 60 62 72) add together for 334, or twice the 167 verses of Bible B...

Just showing off my new VAM-77, arrived today.

It would be a start, you'd have something, as it is right now you have NOTHING.

In the buy, sell, trade section one must set a price. Could we not also allow trading to occur where people offer a single graded Morgan (or Peace dollar) in trade for the one graded coin being offered? I think this program would be more manageable and far more interesting if people were only allowe...

First they went and broke the 4th right star, then they broke the R, then in frustration they started scratching them and dunking them in acid.

The 4th right star is broken and the R in Trust is broken as well, so why bother with it?

The coin was up for quite a while before I bought it, perhaps because it is in an ANACS holder. Or since the guy did not ship to Canada, Americans boycotted the sale and boycotted the seller, as they were in solidarity with the poor people of Canada who desire to participate in the hobby, and who ar...

It was a "Buy It Now" item on eBay, the price was rather reasonable, so I bought it.

<SNIP> My personal view is also that it is absurd to reject "cleaned" coins. They have damage, but so do all coins. They should be graded with the cleaning just counted as damage the same as any other damage. <SNIP>

Figured the above was worth repeating.

Even before these new regulations, many eBay sellers still never shipped to Canada because it would involve filling out a simple form. In Africa there was (and continues) the "Segmentary Lineage System" where two adjoining groups of people would forget their problems and unite together against a gre...

I can still participate in some American eBay auctions, I can still receive some shipments of coins from America, the issue is not so much eBay or USPS or UPS or FedEx regulations, the issue instead is the American sellers who chose not to allow Canadians to participate in their eBay auctions, the i...

As I pointed out to mbarrcoins today, that over the years I had purchased many coins from him in eBay auctions and the result had been much higher prices from the sales of his coins, for he was willing to sell and ship to Canada. Now he is complying with a new eBay shipping policy which prevents me ...

No, you can set your preferences on eBay to allow sales to Canadians and then you can do your best to try to mail us the coin. Apparently If you try to send the coin with insurance and tracking, you will be prevented from mailing it, as from what I understand they do not want money in the mail. Befo...

How does it help your auctions when you prevent me and other Canadians from bidding?

You are the folks being mad at the wrong people. You obviously must be angry at the Canadians when you refuse to sell them your worn out silver coins. Most any American seller reading this post will continue to exclude Canadians from bidding, as they simply do not care.

You as Americans can ship to Canada if you do not participate in eBay's shipping program, all you have to do is set your preferences to allow sales to Canada.

It appears the majority of Americans coins sellers are complying, and are excluding Canadians from participating in commerce. Now you fling crap at me for pointing out the situation.

Why do you refuse to ship to Canada?
