You can't make this stuff up - Craigslist

So I have an ad out in my local CL selling copper pennies. This is a response I received this morning to said ad:

"You can get pennies at the bank. $100 bill for 10,000 pennies . They will trade
dimes quarters nickles halfs and even rel gold dollars. SO NO THANKS I DONT WANT
TO BE RIPPED OFF TODAY. Maybe next week you will be selling swamp land in
florida?"

EVERYONE NEEDS TO STOP WHAT THEY ARE DOING AND RUSH TO THE BANK! BUY AS MANY "REL GOLD DOLLARS" AS THEY WILL ALLOW BEFORE THEY CATCH ON TO THIS SCHEME!!!! FINALLY I WILL BE ABLE TO QUIT MY JOB AND TRAVEL THE WORLD!

HH Everyone

Is there a spot price on silver solder?
We used to call Hershey kisses -silverbells.
Smelt your "Roll Gold" pretzels.
After hours, do they lock those "pots of gold" at construction sites? Some prospectors spend a lot of time in those.
Many opportunities for early retirement!

Too funny! Like the local guy here selling "silver dollars" (plain Ikes) for $5 ea, 'course this was way back when spot was $12.

What's rel gold dollars? I heard the new gold dollars don't have any gold in them, idk what cool joe is talking about.

 

[Thorne]

In this instance rel is synonyms with fake. I think rel gold is European for fools gold

 

[Chrystal]

Oh ok, thanks Thorne!!!

 

[sagittarius98]

Oh ok, thanks Thorne!!!

The person was misspelling "real." The new dollars have no gold in them.

My stepdad has bags and bags of pennies that he has saved for probably 30 years, just recently found out he is a penny horder lol. Too bad i don't have the heart or patients to weed through all of them looking for wheaties and stuff.

Too bad.
Find someone close who has interest.
Offer a child, he or she can keep all but the old ones. Most would flop on the floor and jump in those bags.
Likely to spark some interest also. Maybe not a nail chewer though. LOL

Right on deepseeker. And I'm pretty sure he helped elect the current president.

Don't you mean the last one? We all have our own political opinions, how 'bout we try to keep them to ourselves in this CRH forum.

Misinformed? Quick to judge? Highly emotional? Not very intelligent?

I could argue otherwise. I'm sure each person could identify that as the person in the other camp, right?

I can see where you are coming from BigMoses and if I offended Mercury1, I apologize to him. It's just that I talk politics all day on the internet, with friends, and co-workers and I'm just tired of seeing/hearing all that junk everywhere and on a daily basis. I don't want to see someone make a political comment that makes someone else bring their point of view out and we start with "Liberals this..." or "Conservatives that" and we get away from the one thing I know we all agree on: Coin Roll Hunting.

CRH is bipartisan! :-)

Why not take the time to educate the "less Informed"?
