The American BEP does the same; their 5 pound bags cost $45. The Bundesbank bungle there on ebay weighs about double the BEP one, so that seems to be much the standard price per pound for shredded money.

Sap you got your math backwards. A 1 Kilo bag of Euro notes is only 2.2 pounds so it is a little less than HALF the weight of the BEP package. So they are asking twice as much for half as much or four times the BEP price.

My bet is the Bundesbank probably does charge about the same as the BEP for their shreds and the eBayer is trying to make a bundle on people who would be interested in the novelty but who don't know they can buy it cheaper.

Well $100 might not be bad if you could divide it into 300 little zip lock baggies and get $2 per bag.

I am always amazed at the things people will buy not to mention how much they will pay for some things.
