I COULDN'T EVEN READ THE WHOLE THING CUZ IT IS SO FRICKIN' ANNOYING THAT THE WHOLE THING WAS TYPED IN UPPERCASE LETTERS!!!

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.!

Not me, I got bad enough eyesight already so I'm just waiting for the movie to come out first.

PD  ;)

I can almost see eBay charging an extra fee for such a detailed description.

I think that what he is saying is that this is the Perfect note and I quote" I STAKE MY EBAY REPUTATION ON IT." as he says in paragraph 32 line 12  ;D

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 ???
I know I never saw one 8)

Yes I have, I seen the KTEL Fridge-o-seal seal all sorts of kitchen leftovers and freezer vegetables back in the 80's. Why not Banknotes too? Mind you I won't put banknotes in the freezer unless they are those Antarctic polymer notes or I really have to.  ;D

Like coffee? I think this seller has been sniffing up too much of the vacuum seal (not enough O-2)

or what about those $295 EF 2 digit $20 radars? ???

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
