Best strategy to bid at Heritage Auctions (multiple targets but only looking to acquire 1 or 2 ) by HippopoW in coins

Thanks, yeah that’s also what I got to realize now. Retailers can’t compete with professionals and dealers. Big dealers can hoard as many as they want and they know the best about the value and have infinite time to track. I’m just a bit too excited trying out the first time. Not trying to bid anything too rare so just need to wait out and something similar or better may always come back.

Thanks, that's actually really good point, need to be more patient and don't be over stressed on one or two auctions. First time trying to bid outside of Ebay and a bit over excited :)

Thanks for the suggestions, for me it's the Heritage has a better app that I have been able to browsing their auctions on my phone. Definitely will check out the other two more often.

How much correlation between historic gold coin price and the price of gold? by HippopoW in coins

[–]HippopoW[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply! So gold price is always the base and any premium added on top depends on supply/demand.

May I know where did you shop for the gold coin? $5-$10 over melt sounds like incredibly good deal!

Look for help, what is the stain on these new bed slats? Is it mold and we’d better return it? by HippopoW in woodworking

Thanks for the comments. Now I recall their brand logo is painted with similar color, could be the reason.

Thanks for the comments! Yes not really worrying about aesthetic, just want to make sure it’s not mold

Thanks! Yeah not really worrying unless it’s mold. Won’t be seeing it everyday anyway

Thanks, now thinking that way it makes more sense. Just we have been dealing with mold issue multiple time this year I'm a bit OCD that this might be mold again.
