well due to the high jinx of the holidays (everyones heard by now) I decided to sell another sms ms70fs 97-p jeff. I put no reserve and started at 9.99. I had 700 into it and had told a frend when asked. Well last 5 mins it went from 406.00 to 710.00 and I was flabbergasted. It was more than paid, but way it looked somone was rescuing it. I got my answer when after I shipped the coin to the provided address, it reappeared under my tree. (by the way, this is a board member i am referring-to)
My friend, knowing full well what I was going thru, wanted to help, and knew I wouldnt accept help. So he bought the coin and gave it to me for xmas, with a card saying if ever in financial hardship, to let him know what Im selling on ebay.
Dealing with Death n being jobless during holidays isnt fun, but you all made it a little more palitable.
I am now out of my pre holiday funk, all is well with the world, and I have many wonderful friends here, so I say this to all:
IM BACK BABY!
HAPPY HOLIDAYS

That is a very moving story. I just told it to my wife and she started welling up with tears. It is so great when someone special does something like that. Tough times really do bring out the best in everyone.
Now hold onto that coin!
