    Youd be suprised what uninformed people will buy. I've collected for twenty years (specialized though, so broad knowledge is limited) I've seen some horror stories at coin shows. I've set up at shows too, and because I have such a soft heart, have yanked collectors off to the side to enlighten them. I love this hobby, but like anything else, it has it large share of pitfalls.

    Jeez, give the guy a break. He probably had a lot of lots to post and got mixed up. This one is obviously an ACG.

    HEY.........WAIT A MINUTE..........
    I just took a closer look at this..........the fuzzy image makes it tough, but I really don't think this is a RED, I'm thinkin' it's probably ony a RED/BROWN ...........what kind of idiot does this guy take us for?

    It is too late for the cent but check out his other auctions -

    20 gold 1oz. pieces now at $5500 with no reserve - with gold trading near $353/oz this would be worth over $7 - do you think the guy has them? or would you need to take delivery with a badge/or gun?

    Hey, don't knock it.

    Thats a great price for a PCGS MS-65 Reddish-Blurry-Booby Head-18something or other-polished-doubled eye. A real rarity. image

    I don't bid on ANY auction where the seller keeps his FB PRIVATE unless I know them personally.

    Cheers,

    Bob
