Ever Been This (Dumb) Lucky?

I bought out a store years ago that sold Nascar diecast, ball cards and coins. I was putting in a gift shop that specialized in children's toys. While we were in there trying to get the place in some sort of shape,a guy walked in there asking if the lady with the coin shop had moved.
He told me he was trying to sell some things to her and that he had to have at least 75.00 out of it. Now I was a passive collector at best at this time and had never even looked at a price guide. I just kept any neat stuff I would find like bicentennial quarters and that stuff. So when I looked at this guy's stuff I knew that I wanted it, but told him I couldn't afford to spend 75.00 on coins.
He left and came back a few hours later and said he really needed the money and he would take 60.00. My wife said "no" and that was motivation enough for me...I bought them. I looked through them and bought a Red Book and I was very pleased that night. I felt bad but I figured if he collected them he knew what they were and was willing to take a huge loss.
What I got
5 1/10 ounce american gold eagles
the entire Franklin half dollar set
14 Silver Washington quarters
a coin from 1809 (certified shipwreck recovery)
4 Walking Liberty halves
A Kennedy half set
about 50 foriegn coins and some bank notes
