<p>[QUOTE="nickrapak, post: 381317, member: 4587"]Look, the fact of the matter is that currency gets marked up every day, be it a normal circulated 2003A note or a 1953 $10 Silver Certificate (See one of my other threads for details). The fact of the matter is, most people there check notes for short runs, webs (where applicable), binaries, etc. In fact, the whole reason that I got into collecting paper money was through the collector forum at Where's George? Most people will not mark up a short run star, binary, radar, repeater, old note, or anything else of value before offering it up for sale. There are a few people who are self-proclaimed "anti-collectors" who stamp everything enterable, but that is not much different from those who stamp bills with "I grew Hemp", and are a small minority of the Where's George community. I personally offer whatever is of any possible value on their collector's forum, and then list some on the Open forum here, or vice versa. 75% of the time, the bills are sold. The other 25% usually are spent, unless I feel like a dealer would take it, or I can afford to have the bill in my collection. </p><p><br /></p><p>Nick[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
