COIN COLLECTOR HSN COIN COLLECTOR MIKE MEZACK DONT GET RIPPED OFF ON HSN Nationwide

*Consumer Comment: HSN COIN COLLECTOR

I HAVE CONTACTED HSN ABOUT THEM HAVING THE "COIN COLLECTOR" ON THERE DESPITE HIS MISLEADING AND OUTRAGIOUSLY OVER PRICED COINS.

ALL I GOT BACK WAS A STANDARD AUTO RESPONSE.

I FEEL VERY STRONGLY ABOUT HSN HAVING THIS GUY ON. THEY HAVE A REPUTATION FOR BEING A GREAT COMPANY TO BUY FROM BUT THEY TOTALLY NEGLECT ANY OF THE WARNINGS I SENT THEM ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS BEING OVERCHARGED AND MISLED BY THE RIPOFF KING...MIKE MEZACK.

I URGE EVERYONE TO AVOID BUYING ANYTHING FROM HSN'S COIN COLLECTOR SHOW. IF YOU SEE ANYTHING YOU WANT TO BUY, I SUGGEST GOING ON EBAY AND COMPARING PRICES AND BUY FROM DEALERS WITH 100% POSITIVE FEEDBACK.

THE OTHER COIN SHOWS ON TV ARE NOT MUCH BETTER. I WATCH THEM FOR AMUZEMENT BUT WILL NEVER BUY FROM ANY OF THEM...THEY ARE ALL OVERPRICED!!!

AFTER HSN THE FOLLOWING SHOWS ARE IN MY OPINION THE WORST TO THE LESS WORSE:

1. THE COIN VAULT...THESE ARE ALMOST AS BAD AS HSN. THEY SELL COINS THAT THEY REPRESENT AS BEING RARE BUT THEY ARE COINS MINTED BY TINY COUNTRIES THAT ARE WORTH NOTHING MORE THAN THE MELT VALUE OF THE COINS DESPITE THEY WILL CHARGE YOU 100'S....EVEN 1000% OVER IT'S ACTUAL VALUE. THEY ALSO ARE AS BAD AS HSN'S COIN COLLECTOR IF YOU ARE NOT CAREFUL. THEIR PARENT COMPANY ACTUALLY MINTS ITS OWN COINS...THEY CALL THEM "EXCLUSIVE"...THEY ARE WORTH NOTHING MORE THAN THE METAL CONTENT....MELT VALUE

2. ART AND COIN TV...BARRY CHAPPELL SHOW. WAY WAY OVERPRICED BUT FUN TO WATCH. BARRY LOOKS LIKE A CAVEMAN WITH ALL THE BOTOX AND HIS HAIR!!! WHAT THE HECK IS THAT???

3. AAN AMERICA'S AUCTION NETWORK...THEY ALWAYS PRICE THINGS ENDING IN .77c. I GUESS THEY THINK YOU WILL THINK YOU ARE SAVING A FEW CENTS. THEY ALSO SELL THOSE WORTHLESS FOREIGN COINS MINTED BY COUNTRIES YOU PROBABLY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF.

4. RCTV / RICKS U.S. COINS / RICK TOMASKA'S US COIN SHOW...AT LEAST HE IS INFORMATIVE. HE IS OVERPRICED BUT NOT NEARLY AS BAD AS THE OTHERS. STILL DO YOUR HOMEWORK

5. THEN THERE IS DON DAVIS'S SHOW. POOR DON...HE TRIES HARD TO DO A GOOD SHOW BUT HE IS A 1 MAN SHOW AND JUST REPEATS HIMSELF OVER AND OVER BUT MY MAIN ISSUE WITH HIM IS THAT HIS COINS THAN HE CALLS UNCIRCULATED ARE VERY QUESTIONABLE...HORRIBLE EYE APPEAL...AND HIS SO CALLED SUPER SLIDERS ARE NOTHING MORE THAN A GRADE LOWER THAN WHAT HE IS CLAIMING THAT THEY GRADE.

IN CLOSING...PLEASE FOLKS...IF YOU SEE SOMETHING ON TV YOU WANT TO BUY...WRITE IT DOWN AND DO YOUR RESEARCH BEFORE GETTING RIPPED OFF.
