Etsy...
Is by FAR the best place online to spend over half a million dollars in 10 minutes on one of a kind 'rare coins' and 'minted errors'!
Some are "super super rare" and some are "one of a kind AND unique"...some... are even "unique AND very scarce"!

Stuck them in my Etsy cart...not including the MOSTLY free shipping all these are only $698,570.63!!!
Some of these you'd need to act fast on because Etsy's shopping cart is telling me "Rare find - there's only 1 of these in stock and 9 other people have this in their cart right now."!

    Just incredible!
    I could make millions on some of the more esoteric anomalies uncovered in any given bulk batch on Lincoln cents...
    What are we waiting for?!

    Has Etsy become the online version of the TV coin shysters? Certainly seems so from the OP. I do not visit Etsy, have enough to fill up my days and evenings with real - and rewarding - activities. Cheers, RickO

    That site might be good for crafty stuff, but it sucks for coins. I've seen that stupid pricing there. I get reminded when a non collector says his 1971 Kennedy half is worth $9k, according to Etsy.

  • silverpopsilverpop Posts: 6,709 ✭✭✭✭✭

    sorry i'll stick with the coin site i buy from

    Etsy isn't all that good, has too many red flags for my taste

  • HydrantHydrant Posts: 7,773 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Never heard of it. Until now.

    I hear people who price things reasonably actually do pretty well on Etsy.
    Unfortunately there's a bunch of that crap on there too.

    Collector, occasional seller

    Once upon a time I bought a rare obsolete note on Etsy at a very reasonable price. Hasn't happened since so the story is in danger of being consigned to legend. (Not "consigned to Legend"-the coin auctioneers.)

    Collector and dealer in obsolete currency. Always buying all obsolete bank notes and scrip.

    Who owns Etsy? It is so sad but somebody will buy some coins on here.
    As I have stated before "Welcome to America, The land of opportunity".

    All this free time is thanks to the hundreds of thousands of dollars I make each month selling coins on Etsy!!!

    Actually...I gathered 2 or 3 at a time over a month because it was fun to look at the recommended items each time you look at one of these ridiculous coins. I saved it as a draft and it sat for weeks waiting for April Fool's Day :smiley:

    Please tell me that's not the only one that seems like a joke to you :smiley:

    Don't hit the "Buy Now" button.
