Got This Today

I'd call it 6600 too young

I'd call it a keeper.

I've been looking for a binary for some time...so far, no luck.

It's a cool number for sure and on a $5 or less I would hang on to it. That serial on a $10 or $20 I might hang on to depending on things like condition, and how rich I feel at the moment of discovery. It would have to be a REALLY cool number and in great shape for me to put a hundred up. On a hundred I generally tell Ben to say cheese, snap his picture and release him back into the wild.

Fancy serials on a hundred always pain me.

Here's another way to think about it. I find this note and remember my next door neighbor collects fancy serial numbers so I walk next door and Jim gives me $110 for it. It was definitely worth it to me.

But if I had to scan it, make a listing, wait a week, package it, drive to the post office, stand in that awful line to ship it would that be worth a $10 profit? Not to mention the fact that I had to pay for the listing, the materials to package it, the gas to drive to the PO, pay to insure and ship it. I lost money on it.

And of course a hundred has a greatly reduced audience for a listing because only very few people would even be interested in buying a hundred.

The moral of the story? Save it for your own personal collection or sell it to Jim next door.
