Paper Money
No matter what this auction closes at, the Seller will think they were
ripped off be it $1700 or $17000 (what this unique consec run is probably worth) For the Price of a Catalogue, or the time to visit the libary, someone looses out.

You can't cancel the auction (according to the eBay TOS) because there are bids and there is less than 24 hours left. Ethically, you are bound to accept what you get. I sincerely hope that the items are worth far more than you get for them, and that someone tells you what you lost. Anyone who puts out an ad with all those forbidding warnings, and concludes "Your bid is a contract to purchase" should damn well understand that your ad is the other half of the contract. You've made an offer, and when the auction closes someone will have accepted the offer. That's a contract and you must honor it. Now it's *their* sandbox. -- Tony Cooper Orlando, FL |

The Pick value for the notes is $650 ea in unc. in the 10th edition of the Standard Catalogue of World Paper money. There is only one catch. Usually for notes to be worth that value (for such a small region) there are not ten of them listed at once. Prices are generally driven up due to a demand that is more than the supply. Knowing that there are so many of them is likely to temporarily decrease the value of them. It is quite likely that a dealer will buy them and release them slowly into the market place. Considering the price that the auction has reached I would recommend to let the auction run - take the money and smile. Perhaps give some more money to the person you bought them from - they probably got ripped off. |

They are up to $1,925.00 with 8 hours to go. So at present they are going for approx. $200 each. The $650 price would not have figured a hoard of ten coming on the market at once. As stated earlier a dealer will probably buy them and sell them slowly so as to not depress the market. |

I suppose that some of them don't get out much and have no one to talk to. Others might have power and control issues. They will not listen to you or me, so we'll have to be content to let the marketplace be the arbiter. James |

We probably should stop beating her horse to death among ourselves since she's not playing anymore. I'll bet she kept lurking here awhile though, after her dramatic farewell, to see what was being said about her. Biting her lip to avoid the temptation to reply just once more. I'm convinced that anyone who feels the need to proclaim "I'm outa here!" or something similar to the group can't resist still following the thread they themselves typically caused to turn hostile. Okay. Who's next. Bruce 'I'm outa here!' |
