One must be careful how things are worded (or printed)

info@republicjewelry.com, is offering 4 rolls of SAC's for $40, 4 rolls $40.
It should be more clear, 4 rolls at $40 ea.

    It looks like they are trying to be deceptive and dupe people.

    yeah, that's an attempted duping alright.

    selling them at face is almost believable - since he may have bought a monster bag, cherry picked the good ones and wanted to get rid of the rest (and maybe encourage peripheral buyers).

    charging double for a coin you can get in change at face value - that no one else even wants - is ridiculous.

    $25 in a roll, that's $100. 4 rolls for $40 ?

    I say hold 'em to it. If you live nearby, go there and have them make good on their ad. Otherwise, turn 'em in.

    "Dupa" in Polish means "ass". And not the donkey version. Just though you'd like to know.

    The U.S. Mint Police. After all, the mint charged $35.95 plus $4.95 per roll.

    To think someone asks more than face value is criminal in our democratic society. They should put a tax on that. Oh wait, we do.

    Ahh...the mint charges more than face value.

    If you ever want to sell your proof silver eagles, I will gladly buy them all at Face Value. I wouldn't want you committing a crime. ;)
