ebay gamble, how did I do

As long as you know it's a gamble -- ok

Hey Jeff,

Even if it turns out that those are the best 2 coins in the roll at least you didn't pay over $250.00 for 1 roll of unsearched wheats.

Wow and that is all that guy sells too...
How does he have no neg feed back?

 

The seller states in his auction "BARBER DIMES FOUND SEATED DIMES MERC AND ROSEVELT....."

Well here's your seated (including the 1856 you bought) 140394544997
here's the barbers 300376671817
this may be your 1909 he seeded in your roll 110496839683
and here are the mercs and roosies he mentioned 200442737763

But this is all pure coincidence, as these are unsearched rolls that he purchased from southern NJ

I see the seller has lots of positive feedback and only 1 revision. That is stellar. But the odd thing is the buyers do not leave very much detail about what was in the rest of the rolls and there do not seem to be repeat buyers. If you don't continue making purchases from a seller that has provided you with something special , especially if they are selling the same or similar items frequently , that might indicate a problem. If you look at the buyers who bought those expensive rolls & count the number of feedbacks they have left for other sellers after they bought the golden rolls , that may indicate that they were not too impressed.
