You must be logged in to see this link.

I'm guessing this guy ain't selling "poker chips".
On it's face, it looks like a pretty good deal.
The calculator says you'll pay $1,000 for about $775 worth of clad and silver.
I still like the ad - pretty creative!

Too bad you would need 100 of them to be silver to make this worth while.

Just my two cents!

Dumping his clad while selling a few silvers, ingenious!

Fool's game, throw a few silvers on top, ACT STUPID and voila, you have overpaid by a hundred or so, great scam. Just that a SCAM.

I agree wolvesdad the feedback system on feebay is a joke. Nobody want to leave negative feedback because they are afraid of getting it back in return. If everyone would leave negative feedback for these scam rolls it would shut these guys down.

COPPER - the "poormans" precious metal!!!

SELLING - $100.00 face copper shipped to you for $189.00 machine rolled or bagged - PM me if your interested.

Well, you have to go thru the system in order to justify your negative feedback. Go thru the dispute process, try to work it out, and if it comes to not being able to cope, then you give negative feedback.

Of course, who'd want to go thru that BS?

NDFARMER.. They made a change a while back where buyers don't have to worry about getting any negative feedback. They can now say whatever they want.. or engage in feedback extortion to try to get something extra from the seller.

If your percentages are low.. just sort more. If your percentages are high.. just sort more.

Now selling Copper pennies. 1.6x plus shipping. Limited amounts available.

He had a picture of $500 face in loose halves in a Brinks box and there were Walkers and Bens showing. He said he there were about 50 silver ones and that he used them for he and his buddies' poker games and decided that it was to heavy to lug around and would rather use
paper money - $1000 was the asking price.
I don't know of any feedback for craigslist.
