VAMWorld 2.0

So the last ew months i have noticed quite a few new members, or ones i have not seen posting or answering here on VW2. Sure nice to see this as Morgan dollar collecting is truly fantastic if one gets dedicated and learns to dollar cost average purchases over several yrs, especially in yrs that are ...

What a rip off- Between flea bay and PP the fees add to 20-22 % Guess their learning from the old heritage auctions at 20% At least heritage works at selling and does negociate on larger deals This coin deal is a mess,with rough mkt and designed to steal collectors /coin owners hard earned cash, by ...

Not my coin--- its member pacificwr -see main discussion board under his post

A terriffic coin to own & a stellar grade/example As he posted on dIscussin board his great find, i figured to take it a bit further here BST I use Numismedia.com for retail pricing and simply deduct 20% for PCGS & 30% NGC for Whsle.as i hate the dealer subscription Grey sheet etc Numismedia values ...

The vam 38 has a lot going on and many easy PUP'S pick up points to reference As vams go this 7/8 TF is referred to "As common a snot" but even as prices dropped the last 5 yrs, collectors really kept buying this one at a nice premium. I sold a vam 38 ms63DMPL about a yr ago - Interesting how some p...

Jim Stoutsjdyk is my go to Guy/Buyer at heritage - 30 + yrs there

He lives very
to the old office and says the virus there is absolutely terrible

Dallas & FT Worth are as one huge city with everyone nestled like bees (not good)

Both Fleabay & PP have made periodic changes that pretty much try to protect Buyers, while leaving sellers in cold and more screwed than before. 30 day returns on coins is totally crazy & 15 days to long as well. Yet, E bay allows scoundrel large sellers to continue to fleece buyers - one such large...

Both

ASH HARRISON; = A great person who has always been here to help and knows more about Coins than most of us could imagine I remember yesteryears when ASH was struggling just to survive in a tough industry. His tenacity and good will have promoted his success both here and his BM store. May god bless ...

Nice to see you selling as well !!

Quite amazing how Die studies / especially Sub Varieties have become the Focal point of many of our current varieties. As members had more time on hand and specialized in a particular date, great strides were gained determining LDS,MDS, EDS and etc. Folks like Russ James & clashed E progressions hel...

I decided to go look again and try to figure how to do pics I have e bay site with worst pics i ever saw- flatbed lousy scanner Total picture illerate- tech dinosaur-- really So for the umteenth time i simply have no idea and so frustrated- I want to throw computer through window So im done and will...

Thanks JB; Calm is the right word, as positive strokes help make informed good decisions We all know this is a pretty delicate touchy issue, and utmost respect a priority. IMHO= In this tougher mkt - I honestly believe vams need more exposure, and a think tank of sorts created. Honestly, Vams are in...

It would seem that a few members here mis interpret my post intentions, thinking i am not a fan of current vam system or LVA, Make no mistake about it; I love the Vam setup here and LVA is the nicest most knowledgeable and were honored to have such a gracious gentle giant within our community That s...

Good to see you post here ASH. Long time no hear!!!!!!!!

For yrs now i have spoken out about having one person controlling any business or venture, withot some help or backup. Here its all pretty hush hush, we dont talk of these things as LVA Makes all decisions. Bullshit, he most likely needs help and the SSDC is sleeping i think If the membership wants ...
