 For that $$$, I want those bills hand-delivered by the Queen of England. But I'm sure that's included with that wad of devalued currency.  Edited by KurtS

Not enough to make shipping charges cost 10k, that's for sure.

I believe that was just 100 notes (itemized in the auction by country), said to have a "catalog value" of $2.5M. Yeah, whatever. Edited by KurtS

Doesn't matter. He's only selling them 100 at a time. The auction is worded deceptively. |

If they weigh 1 gram a piece that's over 2200 pounds. What's it cost to ship well over a ton from Singapore to the US? It might not be that out of line.  |

Admittedly it was a few years back. When I moved my possessions from the UK to the USA. I checked various shipping companies and movers. It turned out cheaper for me just to hire a 20' container From Southampton UK to Houston TX was just over $800 The problem came at the Houston end where customs impounded my container for almost 18 months which added close to $2000 onto my container rental fee. So even with the delay it still cost me a lot less than the $9,9999.99 they are asking.
We airfreight Geological equipment to Australia weighing significantly more than 2000lbs for less than half his price. Either way as the auction states you are paying this for 100 notes....

Hey there!! If you read further down, he DOES combine shipping on multiple purchases!!  In addition, and this is a copy and paste: First item shipping in full whichever is higher, rest singles at 0.50c each for up to 25 items, when you buy more than 25 items singles are charged at 0.25c each in most cases.... So, I guess you just need to buy 100,000 items from him and then it will be a lot cheaper. BTW, it is for ONLY 100 notes - he actually lists the notes. |

They obviously got confused and meant Indonesian Rupiah!
10000 of them is about $1.10

Nope, it's for 10,000 sets of 100 different notes. |
