<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jmccarty, post: 2183993, member: 74979&quot;]Gents, buying coins, even graded is a gamble of sorts. I expect, all of you over 20 years old know this better than I do. And I am closer to 50.</p><p><br /></p><p>Calculated risk that it may be worth what a grading agency or some other 3rd party says it is worth. Then there is the appeal of getting a hold of something rare. That&#039;s what the ebay Morgan roll guy is preying on and the OP was pulled in by.&nbsp; Bet it wont happen again to him and very sorry if he can not get his money back!&nbsp; I think it was quite a lot!</p><p><br /></p><p>When I was about 9 or 10, an old guy my father new said I could go through his 10 gallon whiskey jug of pennies he had been throwing pennies into since about 1930. I made up a complete collection to date and kept going through it until to my untrained eye, I had the best collection that could be found. I had to repay him penny for penny for whatever I took out of that jug.&nbsp; I still have them and they are probably worth very little.</p><p><br /></p><p>That kind of opportunity comes along but once in a blue moon. Everyone that likes history and the shiny things that are left over looks for that.</p><p><br /></p><p>I would like to ask ebay why they are allowing someone to sell empty, or maybe fraudulent dreams.&nbsp; If that is what it is.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I have had dealings with ebay and paypal a lot recently. Both in trying to pay and get coins shipped where I wanted them shipped. In all cases, with time, it all works out how I want it to.</p><p><br /></p><p>It may still work out for the OP if he keeps on them. Hope it does.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
