It's an unusual style that screams 'scam' and 'con' to me.

I don't mind the anger and attitude so much....it's the poor spelling that bothers me. It doesn't look like English is his second language, so I'd at least expect decent spelling and grammar at those prices. I might buy something if I was 100% sure what I was getting...don't know anything about currency.

I feel much more sane, now, than I did before reading through his listing.

He/she has only had 21 sales and the previous sales descriptions are not obscene like his/her current offering (last sale Sept 2013). It kind of makes me wonder if the account was hijacked.
Rest in Peace

Ha! So I wasn't the only one.

Anyways, I clicked the watch button just because I could.

The writer has some serious mental issues and needs help. I'm surprised ebay hasn't pulled the offensive listings.

He has several items up for bid right now and they are all all-most as offensive.
I think he needs money very badly and is trying to unload a very expensive collection, but all the dealers he went to tried to low ball him and now he's mad.
I hope I'm never in that much of a hurry to sell something.
I'm thinking after a few months of hundreds of watchers and no buyers he may change his attitude.

Would be interesting to hear from someone who collects bills about how fair that price is.

I get the feeling he overpaid for something and is trying to sell it for that and has gotten sick of getting more fair market value offers or being told its over priced. He probably shopped it around before ebay too and didnt like the offers.

His strategy is kind of working since its getting eyes on the listing, but if its that overpriced it probably wont make any difference.

Another Serial #1 $20 note from this same bank - C000001, in 66PPQ, went for $2000 at Heritage in 2009. That should be all you need to know.

OUCH! He/she might be hoping others cannot figure out how to comparison shop.
