Too bad he didn't want to stick around for a few more posts to allow him a better chance of giving that bill a good home. I don't have one in my error collection, and as MEC2 said, its condition would make it within my reach. MEC2, aren't you a WG poster as well? Maybe you can still get it.
What's more passive-aggressive than making a jab at a whole forum worth of people that collect older bills whom you haven't even had the chance to meet yet? Don't let the door hit you on your way out.
In a desperate (and probably vain) attempt to drag this derailment back on to the tracks... Can someone educate me on what might have been an appropriate ballpark offer for a note such as this, in this condition? And how much difference would certain changes to condition (say...no tape, or fewer folds) have made?
Choice Uncirculated $2 mismatched notes can reach upwards of $800. In the condition of the op's note, probably $200-$300.
This note sold for $195 in Sept. 2011 in a Heritage Signature Auction (Longbeach). I consider this note a better example than the OP's note, and personally wouldn't pay more than $100 to $150 for the OP's note.
hey guys...when its a Signature Auction that means that auction has the exclusive rights and paid up to be the sole auctioneer like heritage will be doing in dallas this october correct??
And yet, it's going for gangbusters over there. I mentioned I though the note was a $120 note, but he's gotten quite a bit more than that...
You are welcome. When you break the rules we are going to do something about it. It might take us a little while to get to it as we all have lives - but it will happen. Editing inappropriate posts is our job. Best way to avoid having your post edited or removed is by following the rules. I am happy for you as far as what you got for your note. That doesn't mean what others posted about the value is inaccurate.
Found another one. I hadn't been here since this last event, but I logged in just to tell you about it. http://forums.wheresgeorge.com/showthread.php?181809-1976-2B454-H454-mismatch-error You'd be better off being nicer to newbies...
