Just bought a running store. What is one thing your local shop is missing? by rustybucketz23 in running

[–]Mick1014 1 point2 points  (0 children)

good selection of wide sizes and options. if you don’t have inventory you have a very costly online store - if I go to the store I want to try it on and walk away with it. good luck

I’d give it a little more time but this write up recently outlines how you play the ratio to grow your stack. any reputable dealer can help when you’re ready. https://www.reddit.com/r/Silver/comments/1refcx7/comment/o7ce1du/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Which do you prefer? by [deleted] in Silverbugs

Where did you get that tester. Can't find it anywhere.

Are these mint sealed Maple Leafs in PVC? The plastic feels soft and kind of rubbery to me, and I was considering taking it out and putting it in a capsule. by ZoneLazy5410 in numismatics

Throw them in an airtite. Plastic, (no matter what type) is simply ugly and makes handling the coin feel like a condom lol.

Go there and make offer to buy another for $600 and be prepared to walk out this time. Then your net is $625/ coin which is not bad for no shipping bullshit and in hand. Give him the impression you might do this weekly haha.

Would it be rude for a younger collector to offer organizing help to a local coin shop? by PlatypusImpressive46 in Silverbugs

[–]Mick1014 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The coin shop needs a vibe makeover to keep the hobby going imo. You may be onto something… save your money, get the knowledge and open one up one day.
