    How do you handle your coins?

    http://www.predecimal.com/collectors/shop/gloves.htm Aha, so that's why none of those are selling! You can get to them but it isn't easy! I used to sell 3 pairs at a time because of minimum credit card transaction amounts....I can of course let you have 1 pair for £3.00

    What's wrong with my cotton cheap gloves £9.00 for 3 pairs?

    No serious collectors would buy that, they are basically just for tourists or for people to buy as gifts for collectors. If you got those as a gift, what could you say...'Sorry Nan, they're complete poo, can you take them back?'

    As you know, I'm 25 now and even though there were computers around in the 80's they were few and far between. My first 'PC' was a Sinclair ZX81 which I spent time programming in BASIC everytime I turned it on (I didn't have a cassette recorder to save anything on!). It was a hand me down from my uncle. (The same unlce that started me coin collecting) I then progressed through Spectrums, right up to the 128k +3 which had a disk drive! Then an Atari ST, then a 286....386's, 486, Pentium 1, 2, and now I'm on an AMD1300.
  7. erm, there were flames, err, and the devil with a goat, but it might have been a sheep, or even a lamb. When you're being possessed the species of sacfificial animal is not top of your agenda.

    Don't give 'em ideas, I want to do that in the future!

    It's good that they are embracing it, but they could perhaps do it in a better way, like become an 'ebay partner' or something like that. Something to be more 'official'. They are the worlds most famous and longest established auctioneer of numismatic items, and they auction their numismatic books on the worlds most infamous auctioneer of numismatic items! The same place that many brain dead, clueless people auction numismatic items. Such irony.
  11. Yes, a couple of good ones there, but I don't want people to think i'm a satanist into black magic and all that, I'm really very normal. Do research on sleep paralysis, as that is what I had I believe.
  12. Everyone dreams of dead goats and devils at some point, don't they? The nick names aren't that inspiring. The first one was wonderful, but perhaps a tad too long.
  13. We are in the Nothing Whatsoever to do withCoins Area Chris... Yes, but one has to draw the line somewhere! You think a nickname would possibly be good then, I'm up for ideas.
  14. I'm sure people would humour you if you told them; very odd, I've never heard of anything like this before (in my long experience ) Maybe you could try hypnotherapy to induce it again....then film it and put it up for download! This is a coin site, not a paranormal site! Where I go when I leave my phsyical body is entirely my business.
  15. Yeah, even into space and other dimensions. Truth is, I really don't think I can take people where I am capable of going.
  16. Now, don't go thinking I'm rich Penny Master! That's the most far fetched thing in this thread!
  17. I don't know how much i'd charge, pretty cheap normally, but very very expensive during the school holidays!
  18. That's why I left it until now! Anyone asks, I can cover it with humour if need be!
  19. It is absolutely true...In fact I was almost able to have a controlled 'vacancy' the other night I think...Or perhaps it was a dream. That's a very good idea about the airline, I'll keep practicing.
  20. The devil visited me in bed one evening with a slaughtered goat. My body was paralysed and I felt him trying to enter me, in a possession kind of way. Further research has led me to believe that the devil part was a dream, and the paralysation was because I had left my body....The feeling of possession was me re entering my body, at which stage movement control was regained. It has happened twice and is a bit scary. Apparantly in time I can learn to control this, and leave my body during sleep at will....Which is wonderful, i'll save a fortune in airfairs to the UK!

    Yes, they are rubbish aren't they, with trade dollar reverse. I cringe at the language used to, it's so 'American Salesman' (no offence Americans) and it really makes me want to puke. I bet they only sell 1 set per 100,000 viewers of that page, which probably equate to about 5 a year!

    Well we cannot call them liars, maybe they made their coins by hand. I'm sure even Mr Lobel can't afford the Royal Mint equipment.

    Keep an eye, if that happens I'll remove the link!

    Perhaps they actually sell very few books through the website. i think they must just trying to sell as many books as possible any way they can, but keeping the coin side 'traditional'. Stinks of desperation to me though.
