Richard was the first person I bid on an ebay auction.....I just got into silver strikes when a friend wanted to go to the Hard Rock to complete his set of guitars in 10.00 and 20.00 ss.....well since he was in on that, I played the machines and have had much luck in getting them....since then I have joined the Silver Strikers Chapter, my number is SS-219 and Richard offered a great set of 15 coins in a display case, and really got me started to go futher in collecting...so, all I can say is great things about Richard and hope to meet him at the tourament.....Christine
