My goodness! I just happen to have my TV on the HSN2 channel as background noise. A few minutes ago, I had to stop what I was doing and turn my attention to HSN2 because I was hearing a very loud, agitated, and angry male voice that had been going on for much too long. I kept wondering why the host was unable to end the phone call with this furious little man. It didn’t take me long to realize that the angry man on the phone was host “Mike” and he was talking with the studio host on a Coin Collection that was on air. I was glad to find out that the studio host was NOT being fussed at by a angry customer. It seems that Mike is VERY passionate about coins. I had a good laugh over this and had to share it with the community.

Yes Mike is very loud & passionate & has his items way over priced. particularly the ones from ANACS. I have many of the coins Mike has sold, particularly silver eagles. However in doing much reading & research from actual coin dealers & reputable collectors, Mike takes advantage of people like myself who up until this point did not know the difference & thought I was getting great deals from him. There are many other places where the same coins can be obtained much cheaper. He is loud and obnoxious & really pushes product to get it now or it will be gone at that price…just not true.
