    I decided to try and create the perfect ebay auction and here is what I came up with.

    Description

    You are bidding on 1 absolutly unsearched roll of wheat pennies. These are a special roll because of this cerial number. c 1968D (these are the serial numbers of early San Fransisko coins). I got these at an auction where I had to outbid 15 other bidders that knew these are special. These were found these rolls in an old mason jar while the prevoius owner was searching through an old barn that was once owned by Abe Lincoln himself. I showed them to several area coin shops and they told me that they are worth alot of monies. One even offered to pay $500 per roll. I politely declined the offer and decided to sell them here and give the money to the boy scout troup that is sponsered by my church.

    Bid now because these rolls are awsom. While looking through some them I saw several 40's and 50's dates but may have earlier dates. $15.00 shipping per roll.

    Not responsible for shippments lost in the mail, lost at sea or just plain lost. Not responsible for badly damaged coins.

    Bid in confidence 78% feedback rating

    :rolleyes:

    BTW
    I do have better spelling than this

    Wow, whats the auctin number? I'll start out at $1500. Abe Lincoln Really owned the barn? He MUST have touched those rolls:bigeyes:

    And to think there are some people who will actually bid. Not that it is there fault, just there fault for not learning before buying...

    Kind regards,
    Stan

    That's a good thread, I like it.
    The perfect eBay auction for me would be,
    No limit dueses wild, no reserve, no shipping, handling, sellers fees or buyers fees, no eBay and no bids.

    If the whole site fell in the sea today I would simply laugh out loud and wish it had happened sooner. A useless site of over hyped bull (*#$ and I really don't care whether it lives or dies.

    Let me see "are you'all clear about where I stand on this"???
    I there are any doubts let someone else know.

    I once tried making a satirical ebay auction - for real.
    Didn't turn out so well, since the buyer ended up only reading the first few sentences....

    yeah.... lol

    I asked the seller if it is a peace dollar. Waiting for a response.
    Whatever it is, I'm sure it's very nice.

    That made me crack up in laughter. You forgot the part about not knowing anything about coins and you're not a grader of coins.:pencil:

    This thread is hillarious. I busted out laughing at work. My coworkers looked at me like I was crazy.
    That peace dollar is the best because it has a "Genuine" grade. Were do these people come from. LOL
