Good fortune, Bad luck, gold, Silver,

This being my first journal entry of the month I have something to say about a lot of things. Let me start out with I was dismayed like everyone else when pay-pal became the only method of payment on eBay. I run about 30,000 grand a year though pay-pay a combo of payments and receipt of payments for the last 3 years and have had no problems at all. (Knock on wood.)I moved some of my business over to ebid . net(put two spaces in so it wouldn't show a link) which was supposed to be more seller friendly ie no listing fees low F.V.F acceptance of checks and money orders and more. Unfortunately the and more was scammers and out right thieves. Also not enough bidders to run a decent auction, most every thing is a buy it now at retail prices. If you do see a bargain chances are it is a crook who is phishing for a sucker. This auction site is owned and operated in Great Brittan. IF you have never heard of it or visited it, keep it that way. After 2 months

I pulled all my stuff off and bid it a found farewell. One seller stole $20 from me another one tried to get $310 but pay-pal came to my rescue on that one. I filed two complains with the postal inspectors for what ever that will do and made a theft complaint over the phone to the Charlotte N.C. police department. I picked up a nice $1 1858 gold Princess that I hope will grade at least a MS60. and have 5 2009 ASE to submit.

I also use Microsoft Care One and it does a superb job of guarding it from all kind of nasty things. Work is slow due to the slumping economy but my part time coin business is booming but for how long who knows. Well I guess I have run enough disjointed thoughts together for one night.
