What kind of Ladder would this be?

News: Welcome to the Canadian Paper Money Forum.

What would this D/A ladder be called? Lopsided ladder or Ladder with a limp?

I don't know what your ladder would be called, but it's sure a cool number.

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.

A little more conventional,  :)I like conventional...Here's the other D/longer A.

Hmm...I'm still having a problem with my pic.

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

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.

Oh No!

 That headline for the item listing is rather misleading. I do think the bidders should have noticed the 0 though.

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.

I have a better name for that one.  I would call that note a "spender".

 How about "Reached 2 far for EVEN a ladder"

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. 
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.

This note is back up on eBay once again by the same seller

Looks like the last buyer got wise.

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+++$$$$
