    Yes,even I have the time to visit estate sales, garage sales and meet individuals in their homes to buy their coins... but I really can't fit in the time to see what I have bought...

    Hmm, he says they are unsearched, but he also says

    How would he know that, if they are unsearched? Ah, what the heck, give him the benefit of the doubt, maybe he's phsycic. :p (<--- sarcasm alert) Normally I don't put down ebay auctions, but it seems he contradicts himself here, or I could be way wrong.

    Phoenix :cool:

    There was a thread about this joker around a year ago. I remember commenting on it. Back then, he got a lot more into college and how he was busy, etc.

    It's the old adage - people want to believe certain things. If you tell them those things - like "Unsearched", they will BELIEVE you because they really, really WANT to believe that. It's Psychology 101.

    All too true Pocket Change.

    What really got me going was selling by the ounce and an open box that is unsearched.
    Yeah,
    We just grab them out of the box without even thinking of taking a second to look.

    Couldn't help it and jaytant's post inspired me. Had to ask a question.

    "Now let me see.

    You have enough time with your busy scedules to seek out and buy these coins. Then you put them in a cigar box where they are easily visible and will only take a few minutes to search as you pull them out but they are "unsearched?".

    So who pulls them out? Helen Keller?

    Where do you all go to school? University of Scamagon?
    Majoring in scamming? Looks like you're going for your doctrate at this point."

    I did bid on three lots though ;)

    Wandering around aimlessly with Helen most likely.


    ...and like her sister with one L in Hellen she gets ripped off just as bad as the bidders!

    Sellers that have auctions like these, are like the idiot (as well as his sons) that I used to work with years ago! He (Al) and his sons were selling a 70 acre tract of land that he owned, by the square inch. What's even sadder, is that they actaully had some folks purchasing pieces of the tract by the square inch!:eek:
