[QUOTE="HumptyDumpty, post: 772918, member: 21325"]Hello all, So I've shopped on ebay for a two weeks or so now and have a good idea on what passes for BU, and anyway, here's where the title comes in. So I went to the bank today, got two boxes of cents. One box was sealed and had LP4 in it, the second box had 13 bank rolled LP4 and the other 12 rolls were rolled by the banks customers (and no, this isn't a sales pitch, LoL). My wife came home from work today, and after she and I had opened the first 8 rolls that were rolled by a customer, we had a pile of bright and shiny 50's, 60's, and 70's cents. There were NO 80's or younger coins in those rolls! Given what I'd seen on eBay, any of those coins could have gone for at least $5.00 each. So, given that those 400 coins were in such prestigious condition, I couldn't help but feel guilty for now owning them as obviously they were a part of a collection. I'm thinking perhaps a widow because no living collector would let them go for a straight swap for $4.00 in paper money. Anyway, the point of this post is, does anyone ever feel guilty for something that they stumble across? Is it a dog eat dog world in this hobby? P.S: Is this the wrong section to post this in? Thanks, Chas.[/QUOTE]
