Now that's a noodle ........

Quoteno one sane would buy them

Indeed, that's exactly why if I had a spare $12.8k I'd do it for the fun of it. (Maybe I'd haggle and have a quick squiz beforehand).

Now where did I put my tablets ........

You should buy this sack of $2 coins I'm about to go swap. A steal at only $80 per coin. I can't guarantee you'll find anything, or that they haven't been previously noodled, but it could be fun. :diablo:

I would never ever ever buy a lot like this from a dealer for any more than face or scrap value, both of which are substantially below $12.8k, and anyone who would is certifiable or a candidate for this bridge I'm selling.

Sorry Fulvio, I've already put my deposit on that coat hanger shaped one! Comes complete with climbing tour business and fireworks business I believe!

(The sight of coin bags in the lot suggests they perhaps have been sorted in some way).

I'm never likely to have $12.8k that I don't need, so it's purely a "I would love to noodle them dream".

My noodling dream is to spend a day at Armaguard just after a mint delivery comes in.

Yes Fulvio, that would be nice too.

Saw a lovely pile of $10 paper at the bank on Tuesday, just handed in (my guess about $400-$500), would that Branch part with it ........ nope! Their reason, by law they must send it back to the RBA. Dreambreakers!!!!! Lol.

Bollocks. There is no such law according to the RBA.

Would not hurt to ask which law. Tell them you will come back later to find out.

Thanks Fulvio & Jeff, yes I'd reckon it would be "their" law. Might just do that. (So they can tell me that the notes are not there anymore or some other bs).

I asked for official confirmation, and once I get it, plan on taking it further with the banks.

I can live with that kind of BS. After all, how do I know if they've got any or not? What I can't handle is being lied to by someone claiming "that's the law" when clearly its not.

Yes, a similar principle applies in supermarkets when they don't even know how their own offers work and try to make up some garbage that they try to feed you.

Let me know when you get a reply.
