Why buy em old and used when you can just go and get your coins freshly minted?

Linky fix

Only $10,000,000

And no payments for 3 months

blastpak

Yeah but think of all the new coins you could have right from the mint.

RWB

Bet it works great as long as the perpetual motion engine is running!

Ebay lets this go on but I gotta show front and back full slab shots of a PCGS AU58 1957 Roosevelt Dime I'm trying to get a Buy it Now of $7 on?!?!?!?

You could do it cheaper with a used DeLorean and a "flux capacitor".

Lets see... 10 mil for time travel from an Ebay member with a feedback of 0.

I would say... pass the bong to someone else, but this individual is just plain nuts.

I do like all the key words he uses to get people to the page.

Since this is a coin thread... for those of you who would go back and get coins, which coins would you pick up and what do you think would happen to the prices today IF your hoard was established?

If I remember my physics from college correctly, I think the theory was time travel forward is possible, of course all being relative, but time travel backwards is not.

WOW im going to go back and get every coin minted in before 1916. 1916ended the mattes so I would want all made. Maybe a few hundred 1895-1893-s morgans too.I would also go back to 1793 and get all the 1792 half dismes I could find.

I wonder if he'd take payment *after* you returned to the present?

Of course, his ad doesn't say anything about returning...

Griv

I couldn't help but shoot him a note:

Dude,
I would be more interested in what kind of drugs are you on as they must be better than anything else on the market. Why don't you just sell them?

Oh and by the way, I already have my own timetravel machine which is why I traveled back to tell you that your theories are wrong.

Cheers.

"This Document & Project is completely Original and Exclusive...A Forty--Two page Hand- Written Original. Included is Set-Up Chapter for Absolute Timing..."

"I Believe the Event of Time Travel is Possible and can Only be Achieved in Presented Theory. I Believe a Simulation is Possible. We will need alot of Energy/Power. This is the Only way Possible. This Theory/Project is Physically, Mechanically, and Mathematically Sound..."

"This will Facilitate the Need of Specific Tools. We are Looking for a Manufacturing Partner to Manufacture and Market specific Clocks/Watches, as this Project requires a specific Precise Time Piece, and will Increase in need Exponentially..."

Still just a theory, and only a document. Not the actual "time travel machine" itself

TexasRick

How about some rules for time traveling.

Time travel rules

#1 take the correct currency for the time period. Don’t show up with a roll of saq dollars in 1900. Expect to “hang” around for a little while if you do.

53BKid

This is hysterical!

Griv

Yes, I have a very similar theory that I am willing to sell for only a few graded coins. I won't tell you which ones so who ever happens to send me the right coins will win. Don't be afraid to try more than once to win. Don't worry, you'll be able to go back in time and get your coins back so it sounds like a real win-win.

I'm not sure I'm reading this right. Is there some assembly required?

Send him $10 million then go back in time and stop payment on the check. Or better yet, not write it at all.

Don't fprget to throw in the fact that he is from Vegas (The scientific research capital of the US)!

Besides if this guy's theory of time travel was correct, wouldn't we already know!?!

Coxe

Screw all of my physics background. I'd bite.....but....the seller needs to get a little feedback first.

ahooka454

I actually pee'd myself alittle reading this thread!


Rule 2: Use proper language of the time period you go to. Never play rap or use ebonics, you may find yourself in alot of trouble.

Coxe

Gee, to think of all of the whacky listings I could have done on 10c listing day...... Have to remember on the next such opportunity. Operatic singing lessons for yur cat; a cup of San Diego beach sand; an empty USPS Priority Mail envelope; my soul; etc etc etc

I'm no astrophysicist, but are we even within 200 years of sending a human at the speed of light?

I read somewhere that a particle of dust was accelerated to the speed of light.

Which raises a good question, how could a human be accelerated to the speed of light, without ripping apart?

RWB

Maybe the key is avoid the light speed/mass/energy problem, and to decelerate and warp space-time?

DesertRat

what's the listing fee on that?

Thenewguy

If time travel is ever invented in the future wouldn't they already be here now?

gonzer

I'll have three of whatever he's smokin'.

Bear

If time travel were possible,

wouldnt someone,in the future,

travel back and screw up the time

line every day?

The causality argument is just the start of it. The compelling fantasy is the only thing that keeps such craziness alive still. It is a physical impossibility. Still, people on yahoo answers like to bring it up regularly.

The truth is, we [evil] physicists figured it out and are keeping it away from the masses. We travel back and forth on a regular basis. Why just this past week, while most of America was unwrapping gifts, I was busy burying a cache of newly minted Carson City dimes in a local park.

True, but my dog, Peabody, got there first.... Anyway - how many parks are there is Frostbite Falls?
