    If I am bidding on "only one coin from the tray", why include 8 other pictures of coins not in the tray? image

    Smells like a fleecing effort.
    When in doubt, don't.

    Reading his descriptions is enough to give me a headache. image

    It reminds of the way 19th century people wrote their letters. If it was a rectangular sheet of paper, they first wrote the normal way, and then they turned it 90 degrees and wrote some more. Image reading that message. image

    The problem was postage rates were high, and one had to find ways to get as much information in letter without using a second sheet of paper. When they were done they simply folded the sheet and sealed the end. No envelops were used because they weight something.

    Or : " If you think my description and photos suck, you should see what's going on in my mind".

    Just to give the anal retentive types something to gripe about. (Actually on the crap mobile device I was using , it looked like there was a magic elixer in the solo cups. But I see now they are just a really, really good way to organize your tempting treasures.)
