    Found a dealer listing an $11,000 coin for $11. Called and said I'm your huckleberry. Needles to say no deal and the listing was changed.

    no way he ships it for 90. way to big of a hit, the seller will cancel the auction

    or perhaps someone reading this thread has already contacted the seller with a higher offer.

    One time on eBay I found a Daniel Carr bronze plaque listed with a BIN price of $2. The seller obviously meant $200 but I figured what the heck, I'd see if they would just ship it out if I bought and paid for it.

    Shortly after that they cancelled the sale and said the item was no longer available - they did not even have the decency to say they messed up.

    BTW, if a bidder's "bid is your contract" as they say on eBay, isn't the seller's listing their contract?

    those right-most zeros really add up

    Maybe list prices in Roman numerals to solve that pesky 0 problem.

    Most listing errors are not honored.... seller just claims an error and is allowed to relist. Cheers, RickO

    Been watching, still hasn't shown back up on ebay.
