<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hookman, post: 3837881, member: 99642&quot;]What kind of dimes are they?&nbsp; US, Canadian, some other?</p><p><br /></p><p>Currently, the melt value for a 90% Silver US Dime is $1.30. </p><p><br /></p><p>The description says &quot;250 + Silver Dimes&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>Do the math : 250 silver dimes @ $1.30 ea. = $325.00, plus he says &quot;and others&quot; and it looks like 3 collecting albums.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>That&#039;s an awful lot of value for only a starting bid of $50 + $20 shipping.</p><p><br /></p><p>I scour eBay for bargains and don&#039;t find bargains like this.</p><p><br /></p><p>Think of this : He could sell the silver to a scrapper for much more money than that, and with much, much less hassle, and no eBay fees.</p><p><br /></p><p>Lesson # 1 :&nbsp; When a deal seems too good to be true, it almost always is.....too good to be true.</p><p><br /></p><p>Lesson # 2 : Look at this guy&#039;s feedback :&nbsp; It&#039;s ZERO.&nbsp; &nbsp; He&#039;s either a complete eBay&nbsp; newbie with no selling experience,..... or ......he&#039;s an experienced con man with lots of experience, trying to hook a &quot;sucker fish&quot;.&nbsp; He may be the latter, trying to make someone think he&#039;s the former.</p><p><br /></p><p>For my money, I WOULD NOT touch it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now, with that said, I&#039;m not on eBay looking at this, nor am I on eBay able to ask this guy questions or research him or this deal.</p><p><br /></p><p>You could check his &quot; previous eBay IDs &quot;.&nbsp; Multiple previous IDs is a possible sign of problems with a seller.</p><p><br /></p><p>Wait and talk to other members before you pull the trigger on this one. You just might be shooting yourself in the foot.</p><p><br /></p><p>Good Luck.</p><p><br /></p><p>[USER=44615]@paddyman98[/USER]</p><p>[USER=40017]@PaddyB[/USER] </p><p>[USER=19250]@Paddy54[/USER]</p><p>[USER=92083]@JCro57[/USER]</p><p>[USER=10461]@lordmarcovan[/USER]</p><p>[USER=91609]@PlanoSteve[/USER]</p><p>[USER=27107]@SteveInTampa[/USER][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
