You might ask what a big bird has to do with coins.
Or you might know that it has nothing to do with coins. I started on eBay with my simuware account, and began selling a blackjack program for Windows.
I still sell this program, but under the username winsim21. I was forced to abandon the simuware name when a large electronic game outfit sent me a
cease-and-desist order claiming infringement on a number of their unregistered trademarks. Unfortunately for them, I had registered the name and the
period for them to object to my name had passed. Still, the prospect of taking on a large outfit with deep pockets and a history of ruthlessly litigating
their trademarks did not seem prudent. We agreed instead on figure that they paid me, and I changed my brand name. While I liked the combination of
Simulation and Software, the best I could come up with that did not infringe on any existing trademarks came from Emulation and Best hence,
EmuBEST. The big bird part of this should be obvious. And this became my eBay username for my personal account, which I decided to keep separate from
the one I was selling the blackjack program.
My hobby is coins: I collect them. From time to time, when I update coins in my collection, I may choose to offer the ones replaced on eBay.
This offers you the chance to get registry quality coins on eBay without the need for paying exorbitant buyer premiums of 10% to 15% charged by major
auction houses; and, it offers me the chance to quickly convert coins I no longer want into cash. I also sell coins when I decide to discontinue a
collection, as I did with my Proof Indian Head Cent collection in 2006; and, as I did in the Summer of 2007 with my retired Mercury Dime collection.
I format my auctions to provide what I like to see when I buy a coin:
- Pictures of the entire slab (for certified coins) showing the serial number. This is the easiest way for you to be sure that the coin in the auction is the one you receive if you win.
- Pictures of the front and back of the coin that can be magnified.
- A summary of the coin statistics (e.g. mintage, diameter, weight, population
- A verbal description that honestly describes the coins, in particular, its obvious short-comings.
- A liberal No Questions Asked return-policy. Bidder has 7 days to notify me by email, and then 7 days to return the item. There is no restocking fee. Bidder is responsible for S/H/I.
- Low and Reasonable Shipping & Handling fees. I offer first class and priority shipping, and optional insurance, so you have the choice to balance cost and risk as you see fit. I also have a cap of $15 as my maximum insurance cost to you, for coins shipped by Registered Mail.
- And finally, my pet peeve: Retaliatory Feedback. I promise to leave feedback when I ship the coin. I don need to see your feedback for me to know that you deserve positive feedback. And you should not worry about what I might leave as feedback for you, when you leave feedback for me! I figure, if I take care of you: The feedback will take care of itself!
