Hey Goatieman,
In general, do you think the notes condition is a major factor with the value of error notes ?

Rbarat, for me it's a matter of scarcity. I haven't seen an error of this sort before.

There's a couple more errors I want to chase. It's just a matter of finding them. I would love a 50 without a serial/s or without signatures. But there are a lot I'd love.

My highest bid was $567.65, a bid enough above $550.

Rev, were there any fake/pretend bidders bidding? The other bidder (& one other too) had only bid on that item...hmm. Seems a fraction suss, but I'm not making any accusations. In the end, I spent about $60 more than I wanted. I would have been happy to pay ($360 to) $460.

Does seem a bit odd to me as well. I put a low bid on early but was way way outbid by you goatieman.

Enworb, you're not the only one that found it odd. I'm becoming more & more curious. Enworb, how much was your highest bid?

Only $85 no hope at all lol.

I see one of the bidders only had 2 feedback but they didnt drive the price up too much. It seems as if it was the person with 20 feedback had the most impact. 20 feedback is not too bad. You will never know but I hope it was all legit.

Maybe next time there is something you are deadset on you could not bid and then with 1 minute to go bang on a massive snipe bid. This reduces the chances of getting screwed by shill bidding.

I received confirmation from another member known as i***n on ebay that he was the second highest bidder. As I said, you want something enough you've got to pay for it. No suspicious circumstances...as coin people I guess we learn that maybe we should expect it. Maybe we're too apprehensive.

Well thats good Goatieman,your probably right in that ebay has made us suspicious of bidding because of the way it's set up,i for one have always been suss on the private bidding,but thats another subject.
Congrats on adding this error to your collection

I opened the package today & it was quite a nice sight. I'm happy now...until the next nice error comes around.
Rest in Peace

I didn't because I was bidding on my HTC (android phone) & my reception was giving me grief. I thought I missed it for about 5...very long seconds. But after all the issues I got there in the end. I love my $50's.
