    There seems to be a strong causal relationship between sunglasses and stupid listings. Further analysis may be required to confirm this hypothesis, though.

    This is my big chance. I always wanted an 1870 United States Quarter.

    The guy is obviously a subversive, in his long and detailed descriptions he always says "united States 'Coin' " but "Colombian Half Dollar".
    I think there is a sinister motive to his posting "united" instead of "United".
    Haven't been able to find much other evidence in the voluminous descriptions of the coins, but I'm working on it.image

    I'm waiting for someone to put up an entry that just says "rare coin" and a price image

    A secret code. Has nothing to do with coins. He's broadcasting secret messages to space aliens!image
    Nothing else makes sense.
  • I think we should inquire about any type of return policy. Just in case we don't like the coin. image

    Hmmmm...... He (or she) set up his(or her) eBay account today. Could he be more obvious? This must be a joke....

    The 1921 dollar starts at $500. He's describing it as an E.Pluribus.Unum dollar. Must either be
    a conman or a neophite. Probably both.

  • Looking at auctions like that make me stop and think...

    Then it makes me worry about some folks. Oh well, it takes all kinds of folks to make this wonderful world spin around.image

  • If the seller really were clever, he'd set the minimum bid a lot lower, get a bunch of bids from other sunglass wearers, and then brag to his friends that he was an ebay Powerseller....
