<p>[QUOTE=&quot;NorthKorea, post: 1786718, member: 29643&quot;]I attempted to sell monster boxes on CL once. The only responses I received were from a known scammer and one of his friends. Both offered me $1 under spot for eagles. At the time, I was asking $1.75 over spot. When spot exceeded the previous asking price (a full 6 weeks after the fact), the scammer said he&#039;d buy all of my inventory. When I stated the new price (still $1.75 over spot), he called me a bunch of names and said karma gets you. All of 20 min later, he sent me some garbage about borrowing the money he needed to buy the coins from his grandfather. I told him that the offer came off the table the moment he got out of line. He then called me more colorful names and said &quot;what goes around comes around.&quot; I responded &quot;You&#039;re absolutely right. The reason I&#039;m firm on my price is I don&#039;t feel a desire to sell to someone who tells young mothers that he&#039;ll pay $2 over spot, then when they show up, claims the coins are damaged, the offers $5 under spot.&quot; I added him to my spam filter. The reason I messaged him was he did that exact thing. A young mother here had inherited coins from her grandfather. I made her what I thought was a fair offer. She emailed me apologizing that she received a better offer. I thanked her for her time and said to call me if it fell through. Two weeks later, she called me up asking if my offer was still good. Silver had gone down in price, which I explained, but I kept to my word, since I told her I would honor it. When I met with her, she also happened to have a horse blanket, a fractional currency note (severely damaged, but the first one I&#039;d ever come to own) and some liberty nickels. I made fair offers on the &quot;extras&quot; (as she called them), but she said she brought them to give to me because she just found them.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Beyond that, the guy doesn&#039;t remember, but a month before he started buying silver, he solicited me for gold bullion. After agreeing to a price, transaction date and location, he calls me up the day before we&#039;re supposed to meet, claiming that his truck broke down, and he could no longer complete the purchase. The next day (the original day we were supposed to meet), he contacted me again (apparently he had forgotten the first time) offering to buy my gold proof set (gold dropped 8% or something from when we agreed to the transaction and when he canceled) at spot. I told him that I thought he had to fix his truck, and he hung up the phone on me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
