For just $3.95 plus S&H we will send you this crisp uncirculated $2 bill! You can get them from the bank for $2, but ours are crispier! They are so crisp you just might mistake them for a potato chip! (Dip not included). BUT HOLD ON! If you order now we will send you a 2012 Chaco Quarter, a 25 cent value for FREE! We know you can get rolls of these from the bank, but our quarters are shiner, and the edges are sharper! You will love them! In fact the edges of our quarters are so sharp, you can use them as a pie cutter! They are so shiny, that you can check your handsome complexion in them! Our special offer is 58% off! We normally rob, err I mean charge $6.25 for this two dollar bill. But since we felt so guilty of asking so much, we lowered the price to $3.95, and it's a once of a lifetime offer, believe me!
Ads like this aren't cheap. They'll make a killing on it as well as the subsequent crap they'll get you to buy once you're on their mailing lists.
I think I'm going to take a quarter, stick a smiley face on it, and call it a "happy quarter" and sell them for $1. Lol.
No sarcasm or teasing this time, Detecto. I promise. Good idea, but I don't know if $1 would be enough to cover your expenses. Go with $2.49 plus S&H. I'm sure you'll sell plenty of them if you market them right. Another good idea might be a horseshoe/4 leaf clover counterstamp on a cent. $3.95 plus S&H for "Lucky Pennies dated with your birth year". Make them all "Limited Editions" to make them even more attractive. If you name begins with A thru M, you can call to order today. If your name begins with N thru Z, you must wait until tomorrow to call. Limit to certain Zip Codes or Area Codes to make it look more exclusive. Operators are standing by. Call now! There's no end to what some suckers will buy.
Better yet you could offer :devil:free financing:devil: but only if you order in the next ten minutes....
This reminds me of the GOLD REAL 24K (plated) BUFFALO TRIBUTE PROOF (replica) that some company is trying to sell for $10 a pop....and the sad thing is that they're advertising this on a kid's cartoon channel. What a great way to get kids to enter the hobby.
This has been going on for as long as I can remember - nothing new about it. Of course I hate seeing others get ripped off, but that does not mean I should do the same thing. Let your own conscience, ethics and morals be your guide.
