LOL! Yeah. :)

I'd agree that individual random examples are worth dozens rather than hundreds of dollars. They're not that rare compared to other notable errors like mules and wavys.

What I do think is undervalued is complete clockfaces, especially ones that haven't been fudged. Building them is devilishly difficult, as evidenced by Goldy's efforts... If it was easy, he'd have fifty of them! :)

If I remember correctly, the first 2001 COF Upset I ever sold on EBay went for $137.00 about three years ago.

I started selling them again quite regularly on EBay from December 2012 and was getting around $85 but the price steadily dropped to around $25 when I stopped selling around May 2013.   Made a pretty penny though.   All profits going as spending money on out forthcoming cruise.

In all, I sold 26 Upsets at an average price of $36.00.

They are suggesting that the seller of that mangy upset for $340 is related to another seller who claimed to own copyright over the 50c bubble variety.  That seller sent emails to people asking them to remove their listings because she owned the copyright, or patent or trademark as Unicorn jokingly made reference to.

Yes, a bit of a lost cause I think.
The 'wake up' was called for after the message that was sent to AC.

ok
I am going to copyright
dinosaur skippy (my halfp. error coin)

I now officially own the words
dinosaur
and skippy

please forward all royalties to the following bank account

Bank: Get a real life foundation
Account: i'm so dumb that my brain ran away from me
Fees: umm errr , ummm errr;  1c per use - I'll be a millionaire by the end of next week  

those conversations are ridiculous!

you did well Trout in being so explanatory and diplomatic
but sometimes a person can get very focussed and they really can't see the big picture of the world of quirky error coins
pity - as it makes little things into bigger silly things
