Woo. A sixty percent feedback rating.

No thanks, I'll pass.

But it was semi-tempting to hang a gambler's bid out there on this one. If the seller didn't look so pathetic and just looked like the typical idiot and I had more money to burn, I might've actually taken a lowball stab.

(Edit to add: as of my viewing, we had 26 bucks' worth of gamblers' bids on this, with a little over 13 hours left.)

I'll cross my fingers for 'em. Here's how I put the odds: 45% chance of smoebody getting screwed, 35% chance they'll about break even, and 20% chance they'll actually score a decent rip from this dunderhead.

I had to ask him how much shipping costs.

I did not see it in the auction.

You won't find a lot of things in that auction. Like, for instance, whatinthehell exactly he is selling.

Sure I'll take a CC morgan for $26, in what appears to be AU.

The question is what will you receive, an 1887P in VG?

Pretty heavy and thick, never heard that one before.

It may be worth a $35-40 gamble.

Your not going to get the fancy one with the CC, I asked and he/she said they have a few. I think the picture was a borrowed picture.

I love those numismatic ebay ads that call coins "antiques" and start off with "hey guys".

Your odds are better with Russian roulette although I wouldn't recommend either.

Check out another one his other auctions.

Antique Coins from the 1880's

Either he cant read or he's playing dumb on purpose hopping someone will bid high seeing the CC mint mark. I'm pretty sure he can read the front of that peace dollar and see it isnt from the 1880's.

I totally missed the CC in the first auction's pic. I was busy looking at feedback and reading the description (or lack thereof).

I hereby wish to change the odds I posted earlier. Because the borrowed or hijacked picture just happens to be of a nice CC Morgan, my BS-o-meter just went into the red. I smell a rat, now.

Fuhgeddaboutit.

I think we have a dumb person who's pretending to be even dumber to pull in smoe suckers.

Then again, if he is stupid enough to use a picture of a Peace dollar reverse with his "1880s" auction, who knows?

I don't think I'll waste my time or money. But I would laff my arse off if this imbecile gave smoebody a real nice rip.
