Title: What kind of Ladder would this be?
Post by: Punkys Dad on November 13, 2006, 12:28:22 am: What would this D/A ladder be called? Lopsided ladder or Ladder with a limp?

Post by: canadianpaper on November 13, 2006, 04:26:54 pm: I would describe it as an descending / ascending ladder note. Its a nice number but I don't think it has the same conventional appeal as a traditionally assedning or descending ladder note - and its definatley not a palindrome. Cool number. It would be neat to see a collection of such notes.

Post by: canada-banknotes on September 05, 2007, 08:35:15 pm: Now here is an eBay bidder who got taken to the bank today:

http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=300146333697 (http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=300146333697)

The eBay seller had a very misleading description of "2005 $10 UPGRADED SECURITY LADDER NOTE JD234567 GEM UNC"

He failed to mention that BEU 0234567 is not a true ladder note.

At a cost of US $100 I am sure that this eBay buyer will have a bad case of "lunch bag let down" when the note arrives.

That headline for the item listing is rather misleading. I do think the bidders should have noticed the 0 though.
Title: Re: What kind of Ladder would this be?
Post by: Punkys Dad on September 06, 2007, 02:52:53 am: Hmmm....Maybe dis is new 4 letter prefix BEUO 234567, but seriuosly dis hould be classified as near-ladder.
Nice number doh, I would bid $15 US to go wit my BEU near radar.
;D

Dei Gratia mon

Post by: m_samourai on September 06, 2007, 08:15:20 pm: How about "Reached 2 far for EVEN a ladder" ;D ;D
Title: Re: What kind of Ladder would this be?
Post by: Punkys Dad on September 07, 2007, 12:38:36 am: One of times I wish for an eight digit serial number and an extra 2.
"Spender"
"Reached 2 far for EVEN a ladder"
"Filler a la carte" may be a good term. It's Choice Unc after all. ;D
Would anyone else like to push da ladder envelope further?

Dei Gratia my Friends,

Hey Mon. Avoid anymore banknote abuse. Put the ******** ladder note in an envelope and send it to me for safe storage. It will have plenty of company with all the other oddballs I have. 8)

Post by: Elwoodbluesca on September 24, 2007, 03:05:32 pm: This note is back up on eBay once again by the same seller

http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=300154827702

Looks like the last buyer got wise.

Post by: bugsy on September 24, 2007, 03:36:54 pm: They would rather screw 1 guy over for an extra 80 bucks and get a bad feedback and have all ebayers leary of them rather then tell it like it is and have repeat buisness. Not only does the buyer get a screwing over but think how many people in the forums now will be leary of that ebay ID. It will catch them in the end!

I love collecting paper notes and I'm fairly new to the hobby but this person is going to catch a newbie and ruin his start to collecting money with his poor advertising. I know I sure would be PO

And remember without new collectors joining there is no future value if there are no one to carry on this great hobby. The more people the better the prices+++$$$$ ;)
