FOR SALE: Electromagnetically Shrunken Japanese 5 Yen

Well it appears you crazy alien coin guys put your buy/sell posts right in your main forum, like some kind of third-world dusty flea market, is that right?

Ok, I'm hip with that. Here's my one-and-only worldly coin. The fact that it's shrunken in no way implies any disrespect to the glorified bus tokens... I mean sovereign coins of other great nations... that you guys collect.

Anyway, do a big ignorant American a favor and buy it willya? It's for sale on Ebay now, no reserve. Paypal accepted. No funny money.

I bid on it supercoin, just to help get your auction going. Otherwise, I have no interest in it and sincerely hope that I'm outbid sooner rather than later.

My Tomcat might like it for a sex toy though.

That's a heck of a way to describe a vibrant international coin consortium. If we weren't so relaxed here, we might take umbrage at that statement!

I KNEW I shoulda lissened to my momma when she told me to stay away from the dark side.

(PS -- Thanks for the bids, yeeeehaaaa!)

Looks all puckered up, like a one-eyed cat.

The business end of a one-eyed cat.

PS- this thread almost made me spray Caffeine Free Diet Sprite all over the monitor.

That would have been a good use for Caffeine Free Diet Sprite, as it happens. I'd never tried it before. It's fargin' nasty, man! Good thing I didn't pay for it. Somebody left three in the 'fridge here, in the office. I probably did them a favor by getting rid of one of them.

How does this shrinking thing work? And will it shrink my kids?

SYRACUSIAN · November 26, 2003 6:18PM

Well, I found this thread extremely amusing (not the coins though

)

LordM, is this caffeine -free stuff, a sign of a new diet? Good luck in achieving your goal (in the year 2023)

I see we are going to have a bidding war on this one.
