Notes Not As Popular?

Damn, missed it. Ill wait for it to be uploaded I guess...

Oh yeah. I know this seller. Lists Private and uses phrases like EF or better, It's well known, that his notes (from singapore) are always cleaned or pressed at least. And course, he displays the TOP RATED SELLER from ebay. What a joke..I find it hard to believe he has no negative feedbacks. He seems to re list the notes over and over again at different times. I've been a buyer and many years ago a seller on ebay. It's almost impossible to buy quality notes from ebay, that's why I quit trying, after being burnt so many times. What's worse is, someone lists a note as UNC, and it sells for 1/3 of the book price for example, then everyone thinks its the market price. I recently bought a Armitage McFarlane Five Pound (blue issue) in true, natural uncirculated condition for 6500. But find them on ebay in "this supposed grade" for less than half.

That advice would apply to anything collectable. Like anything you really have to do your homework and accept the fact that it is almost impossible to grade a note from a photo.

I buy my notes from trustworthy dealers and dont have a problem.

They are also a good investment in higher grades because over time their fragility makes higher grades more and more rare.

Yes I think you found the person that got the media involved in this.

I forgot to mention those who are looking at the today tonight address that their website is not user friendly.

Also in my post above I relayed what was said in the news story and not what I personally think about the best place to buy a good banknote.

I find it funny that Richard Fahy, the right note, shows his face on the story. Him being the worst ever dealer I have ever dealt with in my life. Talks so much bs, absolute low life scumbag. Heard of so many people taking him to court over issues. Steer clear of this guy. Cant be believe he is on, acting all professional, gentleman, honest like. His skin must be thicker than 50 crocodiles. Here's just a few examples from his website that show how "honest" he is...

And the list can go on all day.....pretty much, if you want to buy from him, lower it 1-2 grades and add in a few restorations here and there..

Oh, I'm sure fellow forum users can "feel" the anger in my posts, so I apologise to you all and hope it's informative..I have to go vent now, while I wipe the foam from my mouth.

I don't think we got that story in Vic
I went to watch today tonight on Monday and they did a stupid thing on the runaway captain that sunk a ship.
Ended up watching bargain hunt YAY

On stackers they said they also aired a story on how crappy gold traders are and you get ripped of, something along the lines they went to sell $1100 of gold and traders only offered $400, now that's a rip-off.
