My eyes popped out of my head when I saw this. Why would you sell money to get money for a holiday?

I've never heard such a load of balls. Decidely dodgy if you ask me. Still you've got to admire the guys front. Selling £5000 for £10,000...lol

Very reasonable postage costs though for an almost 50kg package.

What makes the coins worth more than the face value? !!!!

I could go to my local bank and say

"can I have £5000 pound coins and I`ll give you £7500 in notes in return"

They would bite my hand off

And I wouldnt have to pay the p+p costs either

LOL

What i found funny about this was the part where he put "IVE BEEN A COLLECTOR OF POUND COINS FOR A FEW YEARS NOW"

Well in that case it must be kosha as i also am a collector of pound coins and i have been since they first came out in the 80's. UNfortunatly most of them are new kept in the local arcade now.

Would be a good idea to get rid of fakes doing that, although selling for £2500 not £7500 :eek:

even more bizarre who's going to shell out £10 million on an idea without actually knowing what the idea is . I wonder how much the auction cost to list

If someone does a prank bid he's going to have trouble getting his fees back from ebay l

£50 million for a bit of paper with a couple of pics on it. I might sell land on pluto. £25,000,000.00 per square yard. Any takers.
