$500 in Hard Cash!

[mjlalt]

Been so busy haven't had much time to share my finds.
I'll try to post some of them when things slow down a bit.

But here is an interesting find from yesterday




Now I wonder what I should do with it?

BTW I paid $20 for it

I thought I did well when I found a whole sheet of US 14 cent stamps at a yard sale for two bucks. The lady said the stamps were old issue and most likely couldn't be used being 14 cent stamps. I didn't tell her you can still use them as 14 cent stamps,Duh.....Who in the HE double hockey sticks sold you that for 20 bucks?

The same guy that sold me a working Ipad for $20. It was a good yardsale!
I'll post some pics later

It's stuck in solid acrylic. Not sure if I should try to get it out

Nice! I'm sure you realize those lucite blocks sell for good money right? lucite $500 dollar bills | eBay

 

[tamrock]

I wonder what he thought it was? Phony monopoly cash? Thats got to be the best YS story I've ever herd.

 

[mjlalt]

I am wondering if the first and last bills are real and the rest are fake

Thanks Digg!!!!

I am amazed that the it was still there a 10:45am right next to the Ipad (1st gen but still).
I thought I was dreaming . I literally pinched my self because I had problems sleeping the night before and was barely awake.

I see only one way to find out. Get the scissors.

They're real. One is listed on ebay. They are sequentially numbered bills I think. Encased in Lucite
Dollar Lucite | eBay

I've wondered that myself before. But for the price they sell for it's not worth tearing it apart to find out.

 

[mjlalt]

You are bidding on a "$500.00" Paperweight. The bills are encased in crystal clear Acrylic. The five bundles of 100 one dollar bills look authentic but only two are real.

You will be proud to display this conversation starter on your desk or in your home.

Thanks for Your Bid "

 

[packerbacker]

Yeah, even the guy selling that one on ebay isn't sure but his asking price looks like he doesn't want to risk a loss.

 

[packerbacker]

Griffey is my wife's favorite player. She'd have loved that yard sale!

 

[Mjw38]

Wow what an awesome yard sale.

 

[EccentricInTexas]

Thats an awesome Garage sale!!! I have an older GoPro Hero HD they are pretty neat cameras!!! I have been to two or three garage sales like that where I guess the people are getting evicted or having to jump state or something and are selling everything they have. The last one I was at about 3 years ago like that I spent 12$ and got 250$ worth of Scrap gold silver jewelry 5 bicycles and a load of other things. I Got there about noon and had to pick through the left overs!!! No telling what they sold before hand!!!

I see its in a lucite block. It looked like a sealed plastic bag at first. Well try a hammer and chisel.

 

[vwayne1]

Um...... No. There are not real dollars through the whole stack. Just the visible ones. Don't break it open, too nice a piece to ruin.

 

[jerseyben]

I was gonna say... Look at the completed auctions for these. Not one sold for over $500. That should be a BIG clue.

 

[diggummup]

Mine only has $1 in it, lol-
