PLEASE ENJOY YOUR TIME IN MY STORE!!!
I LIKE TO TRY AND KEEP A UNIQUE AND ECLECTIC SELECTION OF COINS, EXONUMIA, AND MISCELLANY AVAILABLE TO YOU FOR SALE. I SEARCH FOR COINS OF INTEREST BY GOING TO A VARIETY OF PLACES, COIN-N-MEDAL SHOWS, FLEA MARKETS, YARD SALES, ETC. SEARCHING FOR DIFFERENT COINS OR OTHER UNIQUE ITEMS OF NUMISMATIC INTEREST.
I NEVER ALTER MY PHOTOS, I CROP THEM, BUT I NEVER ADJUST ANY SETTINGS (BRIGHTNESS, CONTRAST, SHARPNESS, ETC.), THEY ARE RAW PHOTOS STRAIGHT FROM THE CAMERA TO EBAY. MY PRICES ARE NOT ALWAYS THE CHEAPEST, BUT CERTAINLY NOT THE HIGHEST EITHER, AND OFFERS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME. IF I CAN ACCOMMODATE YOU, I WILL!!! PRICES ARE BASED ON SIMILAR COINS, RARITY, GRADE, AND WHAT I PAID!!! I HOPE I CAN CONTINUE TO LIVE UP TO, or EXCEED YOUR EXPECTATIONS, AND THAT YOU WILL RETURN NOW AND AGAIN TO SEE WHATS NEW, OR JUST SAY, “HI!!!”
THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING SMALL INDEPENDENT SELLERS ON EBAY.
THOSE OF US WHO COMPETE WITH THE STORES AND OTHER LARGE COMPANIES THAT ALSO USE THIS PLATFORM.
HOPEFULLY, YOUR SUPPORT WILL CONTINUE TO ALLOW SMALL INDEPENDENT SELLERS, SUCH AS MYSELF, YOU, AND/OR YOUR FRIENDS, OR OTHERS, WHO JUST WANT TO CONTROL THEIR OWN 'STORE' FOR FUN, FOR A CAREER, OR JUST TO SUPPORT THEIR HOBBIES.
HOPEFULLY, EBAY, AND OTHER LARGER SELLERS, WITH MORE RESOURCES, WON'T SQUEEZE OUT THE SMALL INDEPENDENT SELLERS, A REAL LIFE CONDITION THAT SEEMS TO HAPPEN WAY TOO OFTEN.
THANK YOU VERY, VERY MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT. I CAN'T DO IT WITHOUT YOU!!!
