<p>[QUOTE="panda, post: 950181, member: 24443"]my friend gave me 2 sets of westward journey nickels from them, one plated in gold and one in platinum. i couldn't refuse a free gift, he got it as payment for someone that owed him money. i told him never to take coins without asking me first. because the nickels were not worth the $100 that the person owed. they said they were worth $500.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie9" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> the nicest thing about them is the holder they came in.</p><p><br /></p><p>a few months later he gave me all these large gold and silver covered $2 bills. they were in currency holders and each had a cert with them, but in my opinion and the coin dealer i go to, they are not real money. what is even worse is he was told they were worth $300! he got $150 in face of them and figured at worst he would get his money back.</p><p><br /></p><p>although he didn't directly buy from them, he still fell for there junk twice, and i imagine that some people will never learn.</p><p><br /></p><p>this is the same person who got 3 orders of the hsn $500 knife sets. he thought he could sell them at the fleemarket and make money. he ended up with around 5,000 knifes and ordered a few more packages because he thought he could sell them if he got more.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie5" alt=":confused:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
