thoughts anyone?

edit: i noticed a feedback someone left: "careful one at a time".. so im thinking.. does it really do 2500 coins an hour? i think i saw a video of the guy who made it using a weight system

Not sure, but willing to bet money it's a CH268T in a shoe box.

You get what you pay for. I pity the person that buys that thing...it will end up on the shelf in the basement after two weeks of frustratingly slow and inaccurate use.

he has sold quite a few of them with good feedback.. i think he might be doing a good job of cornering the "two-week-long-"hoarder"-who-loses-interest-after-two-weeks-because-it-just-gets-boring-taking-all-day-to-sort-$100-in-pennies" market

I guess he is using the same math as he uses to get to 2500 coins per hour. Of course I used to be able to do 2500 coins per hour back in my hand sorting days.. so what kind of advantage is that? :mrgreen:

Don't miss his friend's great feeder:
Put this automatic hopper on top of your penny sorter box. Made especially for my friend that created the penny sorter box unit...This is a prototype of my new invention and will have some problems that a little bit of tinkering can fix. You will have to adjust the chute/slide to work for your unique set up. I will also include tweezers to help un-jam pennies, because it will happen! Please don't expect this unit to work perfect...

I can do that many an hour by hand, including unwrapping rolls.

Meh.
