Can't decide which is Worse

The hoaxters who are selling, or the illiterate who are buying...Ugh!

If you look at his feedback you can see he is a scammer. Don't people look at feedback before they bid?

It kinda makes you wonder if the buyer is also a scammer. Maybe the buyer is stacking scams, instead of PMs.

If the buyer was a scammer, I think he could find PLENTY of opportunities to acquire clad bars without having to spend $1500.
Pennies: $4200 - (0) indians - (5)steel - (1) George V Canadian
Nickels: $6500 - (62)war - (23)buf - (1)V nic - (4) key date jeff's
Dimes: $5000 - (24)roos - (2)merc - (2)AgCAN
Halves: $8000 - (7)'64 - (33)40% - (1)walker
