Title: Should be an interesting auction ......
Post by: Unicorn on August 20, 2013, 01:30:07 PM
This seller has what appears to be some excellent notes on offer, it should be quite interesting to see how they end up!

You may be correct Enworb ...... Goatieman indicated Mill Park in one CCF thread and that's where the above is.

I did have all the serial numbers noted down from the previous one (not that you can read too many in the current item), trying to find them now.

QuoteWho is this mysterious goatieman?

Robbiegal ..... you know the Lone Ranger?

(Well that's not him .....)

Sorry, couldn't help it ....

Here's the CCF thread.

He was/is our  resident notes expert for a while on the American coin forum CCF,don't see him much these days.

&  :i_agree: 34 K on blurry photo's is a huge gamble.

Goatieman was holidaying in Adelaide at the time of the posts as I met up with him and we discussed these notes. When i saw him in Melbourne a few months later he had been to see them and told me they were pretty much all problem notes. For that type of money i think someone is going to be very disappointed.

This listing was ended by the seller because there was an error in the listing.

It's been relisted.

This guy keeps ending the auction because he feels he is not getting enough money. Gotta hate sellers that keep doing that.

As he appears to be a serial offender, I wonder if ebay would find that against their rules? After all they are getting no commission when the auctions are ended early.

Peter has been away but now he's back.
