Paid Members Tommy! Posted April 21, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted April 21, 2015 There are writers on here I know. Â What's the standard window publishers look for around word count? I'm assuming in the edit they have a standard target they look at as marketable for things like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Surf Digby Posted April 21, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted April 21, 2015 This site has four varients listed (if you click on the blue text "1851 P, 1851 O" etc) it will bring up an image of each. Prices range, as with most things, by condition; http://www.usacoinbook.com/coins/gold-dollars/liberty-head/Mine's an O, and the condition is pretty much that of the example pic. I'm more concerned over where the best place to sell it would be.

Wideload Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Sorry; yes, I'm a tit. A relative of mine has always done quite well selling stamps (good stamps) via auctions on www.the-saleroom.com. As these are proper auction houses, I've been to a few in person and the coins have a) always had buyers and b) seemed to have gone for a fair whack. The Sale Room seem to broaden the audience by linking all these auction houses up online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've started writing up what diary's I still have intact and filling in some blanks before I forget the other half of what I've been up to so far in life (its not a lot of note to be fair) and as I was typing up at a snails pace it got me wondering about it.

Ladiesman345 Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Hello, can anybody recommend a good website for herbal incense? I've been messed about and lied to by a site I normally use for the past few weeks now. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Surf Digby Posted April 24, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted April 24, 2015 Has there ever been a proper slasher flick style serial killer? The type that wears a boiler suit and rubber mask, and dispatches his victims with a gold plated ice pick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members bAzTNM#1 Posted April 24, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted April 24, 2015 Don't recall any off hand. Didn't Ed Gein do something a tiny bit similar with the mask? Probably wrong there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
