Just saw this description for a note on EBAY
Quote
The notes would be listed as GEM except that they both have the same few creases.

Is that like saying ALM8888238 would be listed as a solid except for the 2 and 3
and RC9000067 would be listed as a million note if the 6 and 7 were zeroes.

How stupid do they really think buyers are ???

It's creative advertising. It can sometimes be quite misleading especially if we do not read it carefully. In some public auction house, if you look at the auction catalogue, you sometimes find the description - " A pinhole, a light bend otherwise gem uncirculated ". If someone read and register the last two words, they think they are bidding for a gem.

When putting down those words in ebay, always spell the truth. It would save a lot of problem later which greatly affect the seller's rating and reputation.

http://cgi.ebay.com/CANADA-TWIN-One-Dollar-Notes-same-Serials-for-99ct_W0QQitemZ200150226639QQihZ010QQcategoryZ3425QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Here we have 2 very attractive Crisp and Uncirculated One Dollar Notes from Canada  with the SAME SERIAL NUMBERS! They must be Twins!! A remarkable find...............or what? ... no tears or pinholes.....see scan.....These notes from Commonwealth countries are becoming increasingly scarce and have proven to be a good investment as well. No reserve and bidding starts with 99 cents.... The postage is just $1 within Australia. I am prepared to send them anywhere in the world. Enjoy the bidding. Check my other listings, as I have lots of items on offer, and maybe you can combine postage for multiple items. That way you save money.................

Take a look at the picture...

Yes that is very poor isnt it. And all bull aside he will probably snag a Grandma or someones wife or significant other that does not know enough, that is buying the collector in there family a christmas present or gift as such. You see it over and over and over.
 
I steped in one time and contacted the high bidder in a similar case to inform the ebayer that what he was about to win was NOT what the auction was claiming it to be!! The buyer then questioned the seller saying that so and so said that it was not what you say it is. AND THEN I was the bad guy and get booted off ebay. Where do you draw the line. I guess sit back, watch gramma get burnt? Maybe all of us forum members are a  s o f t  breed?  LOL   LOL   LOL

Would you others have steped in or not?

I have stepped in more than once. The "gold flag" and "gold flag error" really got me. Some sellers got over $100 U.S. each and one even sold for $152.00!! The guide that Brent wrote seemed to slow the whole thing down.
   Another one was the hand cut "cutting errors", it used to be really bad before but there are not that many now.

  I remember the scammers and and will not buy from them EVER, it's so bad that the other day one of these scammers made a mistake and listed four 1954 $10 notes for $3.50 each and $3.00 shipping but I did not buy, I thought of taking advantage of him but thought my notes would have gotten lost in the mail.

I recently bid on a radar bill simply because I had another that matched it. It was described as an uncirculated mint note, so what the heck I bid on it.
Well only 13 bucks for a $10 radar... How could I go wrong.
When I got the note it had a clearly visible 3/4 inch crease that I could see 5 feet away.  I contacted the seller before giving a negative feedback and this was the response

I don't agree, but I will not argue with you, if you send it back to me I will give you a total refund. I am finished with eBay, people are just nuts.

I guess it was nice that I was offered a full refund but "DID I JUST GET INSULTED" ???

Obviously it's not worth the trouble to send the note back, since the cost of postage and who knows if they admit to getting it is pointless, so it goes to my daughter who can keep it among her notes that she has been collecting.
The point of this is that the crease in the note is obvious and definitely noticeable without have to search for it. I realize that Ebay is usually not the place to be buying high end notes UNLESS you know who you are dealing with and have had previous dealings with that seller. From what I have seen recently, radars and rotators (unless unique) have not been getting that much, so to expect a deal is not that far fetched at this time I believe.  Aside from that, I still think a seller should respond in a business like matter and not jump to conclusions because of their past experiences with other buyers. (Even if I am a nut) ;D

Sounds like the charming gent I dealt with at Gatewest Coins a couple years ago.

Gatewest often uses "sample" images of notes rather than the note you are actually getting.  Which is fine with me, as long as the note I get is the same grade as the sample.  The note I bought was described as "UNC", but when I got it there were several prominent folds and it was so badly centred that part of the design was cut off.

I saw no reason why I should have to pay the shipping to return the note to them, plus lose the shipping fee I paid when I ordered the note, so I expected them to pay the shipping since they sent me a note that didn't grade UNC.

The ultimate response from Gatewest was "we don't like to be harrassed by idiots."  The item in question was only $25-$30.  I spend several thousand dollars per year on my collection, so you can rest assured that this "idiot" won't make the mistake of buying from Gatewest again.

Check out this description of a U.S. $1,000 bill. The guy basically wrote a mini novel about how he got the bill and the story behind it. Maybe he thinks this will make the bill more valuable if it has a long story behind it?

I'm surprised he didn't include an interview with the Federal Reserve Bank employee who put the sheet of $1,000 notes through the cutting machine, and the employee who applied the serial numbers, and the employee who prepared the notes for shipping to the banks, etc., etc.!

This is a brick of 100 perfect 1988 $50 banknotes that I have saved for a while. They are valued at $14000.00 in the new book of Charlton. This is an investment for the serious buyer. I will not be giving any refunds because I know these are GUnc fresh from the bank and vacuum ceiled in plastic wrap.

Has anyone ever got a bundle vacuum sealed before ???

So it's a palindrome AND a radar?  Big deal.  I have a note with a serial number that is a palindrome, a radar, and it reads the same both forwards and backwards.  Beat that!

MY 1234321 Palindrome,radar reads the same forwards and backwards AND is an ascending descending ladder.  BEAT THAT. (Sorry I lied, I don't have one but I wish I did) ;D

Yes Some of that is just crazy that people really think up that stuff to describe these rare notes...LOL

I also have a 2006 5 dollar bill that has been ripped in half but taped up with used tape I had around the house. Prefix is AOK so you know that it must be a good note because it is a ok!! Also the serial # is what you call a elevator note 1112141 it has no 13 in it also both front and last number are 1s so that is called a football series to resemble the goal posts. Due to the fact it has 5 1s in it makes it very very rare. The five 1s add up to the original amount the bill is worth. Therefore it is called a true note and increases the value even more. This bill is also very good luck ever scince I got it I have been 5 dollars richer!! But I want to share this rare bill so I have decided to sell it off at a fraction of what it's worth. I was told by my invisible grader it is worth well over 2800.00 bucks but I will pass on the savings by selling it to some lucky person for ONLY 450.00 dollars WOW.. Don't wait  this RARE bill wont last long!!!!!

I had to try my hand at advertising! What do you think... It's as good as SOLD.. LOL  LOL  LOL

Well I still have my 1974 $2 "Dalmatian" note.  It is a note that is loaded with planchettes - about 60 of 'em.  So with all those dots my note looks like a Dalmatian.  Or would it be more exotic and have more appeal if I called it a cheetah note?  With all the "lion" that you see on eBay, maybe "cheetah" would be more appropriate!

The grade of my note is only a VG-F and one of the planchettes is missing.  Maybe I should call it a one-eyed Dalmatian note?  Oh, and coincidentally, the prefix of my note is "BS"!  The full serial is BS2782648.  Hey if someone has 278-2648 as their phone number I could get even more $!  ::) ::)

Bank of Canada

 VERY SCARCE 1979 RADAR 20 DOLLARS 5663 0278720 Thiessen/Crow!!!! How many 1979 RADAR notes have you seen on Ebay???
Some tips about the 1979 Prefixes:
-first digit "5" = denomination number for $20
- second digit "6" = indicates the printer (BABN)
- next two digits "63" = series number(prefix)
- last seven digits "0278720" = the number of the note within the series = RADAR!!!
RARE   Uncirculated BANKNOTE!!! A minor banding strap mark keeps it away of being GUNC!!!

Squid, you should know better dan to mention Raven's eccentricities especially around Halloween. She been shopping around for strange eBay stuff lately, like cursed items including money. If she posts, do be careful how you read it cause it may have a hypnotizing message hidden somewhere in da text. Maybe she is testing a new form of tinking control.  ???

PD send $20, so I’ll be honest enough to get you to pay the $20 face value for me. Ha ha ha! If this works, forget advertising, I can sell anything on Ebay ha ha ha...(more maniacal laughing)

PS Mr. Squid... you will have the urge to buy your wife a very nice brand new dress and take her out for an expensive dinner.                                               KLR   :-*

Subliminal message #3 Ravenhill Curse #18
By the curse of the Voodoo Lady’s website, paid $2.99US via Paypal
With this Voodoo doll fashioned in the likeness of Hudson, comes complete with a scale replica of old couch, dumpster, and one little shoe, and this doll of a short guy wearing dreadlocks, a kilt, and a Hawaiian shirt because it is always important to properly accessorize.
My Druid ancestors call out from long past, I daughter of Ravenhill invoke the powers of darkness.I pour blood (Source not revealed) on an old ratty $20 bill and fan it over a fire fed by wood from an old oak tree that once saw a man hang. I thrust the pin through the heart of the note, the Hudson, and Punky’s Dad dolls.

Must be the same chap that's selling this mattress.  Oh well, whaddya expect for 40 bucks with a 20 year warranty!  ::)  I wonder if "Royal Tonic" was the model name of this mattress when it was bought new, or if the owner named it that given its present condition...  ;D
