DL20K Pillar of the Community Poland 3201 Posts	Posted 11/29/2009 4:53 pm If you had the possibility of bidding on this (assuming you collect/ed world coins), how much would you bid? The description says there are 500+ coins, and the lot is placed in the "others" category. The shipping costs are within reason. This is the only photo. I am not planning to bid, so maybe this thread should have a "just for fun" label, but anyway I'd like to know. Report this Post to the Staff

bwbollom Valued Member United States 293 Posts	Posted 11/29/2009 5:14 pm 500 x 5¢ each = $25 + s&h...I'd pay that just for the fun of digging through and seeing what's in there. Probably wouldn't go any higher and actually would probably not even want to pay that much without knowing ANYTHING about what's in it. I enjoy grab bags like that though...I'm a sucker for random lots with the possibility of finding a "deal" in there somewhere Report this Post to the Staff
TNG Bedrock of the Community United States 10284 Posts	Posted 11/29/2009 5:22 pm HEY DLK! Congrats on 2000 posts! Also, interesting bag there. I bet the shipping cost a lot. I wouldn't pay more than $20.00 or $25 total incl shipping but I would be happy to be finding pre 1900 coins in there or any silver. It would make an instant collection wouldn't it?

bwbollom Valued Member United States 293 Posts	Posted 11/29/2009 5:41 pm Did the auction sell or is it current? I'm curious as to how much someone did end up paying for it. Report this Post to the Staff

It's an ongoing auction here. I have noted the number and will try to check and let you know. Quote: HEY DLK! Congrats on 2000 posts! Thank you Just noticed it as well. Quote: I bet the shipping cost a lot. I wouldn't pay more than $20.00 or $25 Yup, the shipping is ~$5. Quote: It would make an instant collection wouldn't it? Unless of course, it turns out to be pure junk, like the one I bought before. Everything looked like it was stored in the basement.. or in a pool.. That's not a kind of collection I'm looking for Report this Post to the Staff
