Ridiculous eBay Listing of the Week #2

Okay, so I normally post three ridiculous ebay auctions per week but I'm laughing too hard to post more than one. I just started laughing hysterically when I saw this.

aww it's already ended or I might think about bidding on it

talk about a "sharp" pic

 

I think that's one of the headlights in the Steve McQueen movie, "Le Mans".

 

The picture IS sharp.
It's just that the coin is well worn

 

I got there too late to see it. Still Mcarney that is a great service to us less experienced collectors. We can only learn by looking at these things and reading other posters' comments such as your's. Thanks for your ork.

 

Hahaha looks like deb7513 got rid of her man and is flogging off his gear looking at items sold and items listed , its all guys stuff.

 

Hmm... one of those free-association photos.. I think I see Gumby!

 

Wow!! I can't believe people would buy something they can't see, crazy stuff.

Yep, someone is going to be shocked when they get that coin and it looks just like the picture. Now why would someone bid on a coin they can't even see in the picture? Goes to show you that some people will bid on anything.

It is a super rare example of a coin doubled 300X. Graded MS70

 

Stunning details...

 

Damn! Please watch what you post....NOW I've got a headache.

 

The photographer has cataracts?, someone smeared vaseline on the lens? the camera jiggled? nothing wrong with that picture, have you cleaned your computor screen lately? You wont think its funny when silver hits 40 dollars an ounce. I thought we were bidding in pesos.

I am trying to come up with what the buyer might say if asked about their purchase.

 

Looks fine to me. Everything is like that as you are blowing opium.... Traci

 

Hey, with free shipping, how can you go wrong?!

 

SGS MS70 for sure! :goofer:

 

Nice photo. And the winner paid 16x face value, that works out to spot silver at $22.40 give or take. But then, the 1937-P is a MUCH BETTER DATE!

I have one exactly like that at home! It' a very rare die variety...I call it the aquadroupled-die walker. You guys missed out on something really special!!!

 

I thought this auction deserved an honorable mention in this thread:

Creative photography. Why, the reverses are practically mirror images! I see they have Make Offer. I wonder if bid GBP 4,000,000 would they take it?
