[QUOTE="John Anthony, post: 1594469, member: 42773"]I was looking at various Kennedy rolls that are touted as "unsearched" - what's your experience with these? I'm confused as to why someone would buy a bank roll on ebay for $15 and then pay S/H, bringing the cost of the roll to almost twice the face value of the coins, when a bank would only charge you the FV. Are these dealers just taking advantage of suckers, or am I missing something? I can understand the logic of buying unopened mint rolls for the sake of cherry-picking, though. And I'm a little curious about the contents of this thing...
