No, the seller is not necessarily crazy, if someone actually buys it for more than $5, I'll consider them crazy.
You beat me to it! I think the guy who created that listing is just so much of a scam artist that he is actually smart and watch someone end up buying it; now that person would surely be crazy for falling for the scam!:dead-horse: -tbud
I was bored, so I reported the item as a scam... They can go scam people with the Virgin Mary on a cheese doodle, but they need to scram from the currency listings... Gives the hobby a bad name. They do the same thing with coins! "A special polish 2007 penny" very rare one 4 made. price $84.99! errrrr
it's not just currency. ever kind of item on ebay has it's own kind of fake. look at action figures, toy trains, motorcycles, watches,china,i could go on till i'm blue in the face.you can't take it personally.if someone can make $10 honestly. someone else can make $5 fraudulently.....rob
Maybe Lincoln is moving! If you fan through the 100 bill pack you get to see Lincoln give the entire Gettysburg Address. Btw, what's up with the 15% restocking fee for returned merchandise? Does this guy have a warehouse of these things...with forklift operators and inventory databases?
Another crazy person who claims to know nothing about coins but has no problem starting an auction off at $11,000.00 for a quarter error. http://www.ebay.com/itm/MINT-ERROR-DELEWARE-1999-/170750489868?pt=Coins_US_Individual&hash=item27c185b50c#ht_500wt_1156 Perhaps someone should send this fool a kind message telling him what that coin is and it's likely not worth 11k either.
It's a "Buy It Now or Make an Offer" — People give a ridiculous "Buy It Now" price in hope that the offer will be higher.
Well, my assumption is the guy is hoping to prey on some victim who's clueless, thinking this coin is super rare and super valuable. These people need to be educated or stop preying off other potentially stupid people. But saying in the description "I DO NOT KNOW MUCH ABOUT COINS IF SOME ONE WOULD LIKE TO GIVE A OFFER OR EVEN SOME INFO", I'd say someone needs to educate this fool or scammer.
I know a couple dealers on eBay who have very high BIN prices so that they can review the feedback of the potential offer makers before they accept the offer. This is a way to avoid certain persons from purchasing your items on eBay (i.e., to avoid people who have left negative feedback for others, or who are obviously buying the item from you so that they can immediately flip it for a profit).
