    I've told the story before about the guy who came in and spent 10 minutes picking 20 coins out of a 25-coin tray of bust halves. Before starting an invoice I said "You know you've got about $2,000 worth there." He said "Oh. I thought they were 50 cents each." pointing to the denomination on each holder.

    As I was putting them back on the tray I asked "If you thought they were 50 cents each, why didn't you take all of them?" He said "I can't afford that much."

    I don't know whether to be offended by that Porky's 3 reference or e-x-t-r-e-m-e-l-y offended -

    Actually I'm somewhat surprised that a simple pricing misunderstanding has generated more reaction than a dealer hurling himself onto a sidewalk just so he could make the Road Report.

    Never seen Porky's 3 either, but kinda ruled that out after seeing the original.

    Really sorry as I got side tracked on your inventory before reading the end of the road report image

    Glad to hear DW is doing OK, but just to be on the safe side maybe CRO should hire stunt doubles for all future shows image
