<p>[QUOTE="Troodon, post: 396606, member: 4626"]You can argue fraud I suppose but you got $15 face value in bills for $15.50 so really you were only defrauded by 50 cents... probably not worth the effort to fight over it... the term "star note" is pretty much universally known amongst currency collectors to mean those with a star in the serial number, indicating a replacement note, so I wouldn't accept an innocent claim of ignorance there. (Even if he honestly didn't know that's what the term meant, that's not really a legitmite excuse, as it's his resposbility to not make false claims about what he's selling!) You may just want to avoid buying anything from that person in the future and I'd leave them a negative if I were you but other than that it's probably not worth pursuing the matter any further.</p><p><br /></p><p>If he's willing to accept the notes back and give you a refund though I'd be willing to give him the benefit of the doubt and drop the matter at that point (though I'd be wary of buying from that seller again; and if you do buy from that seller again and he pulls the same kind of thing his "benefit of the doubt" has expired!)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
