    Chad. Are they going in a Dansco Album? Those staples sure make me nervous.

     

    Ok, education time. Why do those staples make you nervous?

     

    John, are you serious? I think the reasons should be obvious.

    I know a lot of folks use staples in this hobby and while I would be the last person to ever criticize or ridicule another person’s method of collecting or storage of coins or any thing else for that matter. I do not use them because using them is an accident waiting to happen.

     

    Thanks, and I do not take offense when someone is trying to help me. In retrospect, I can see it is a bad thing. How would you hold together the 2X2's? Yes, and album is better, but there are some items I have that an album is not in my future. Somethings that are obvious to long time collectors may not be so obvious to new collectors. I did not take offense, just pointing out that not all of us are working from the same knowledge base.
