Most contests have a dealine for claiming prizes. |

wrote in message ... And in what way can we confirm that? You can confirm that by the integrity of the person selling the item. I happen to know Mike very well and he is a person of integrity. Bob |

In article om, says... I have not scaned, weighed, X-rayed or Metal detected this box and DO NOT know what is inside. And in what way can we confirm that? I think it's completely safe and reasonable to expect that this has been somehow imaged and if you open it, you'll have a nice (maybe) shiny penny for your troubles. The profit/risk of not scanning a potentially valuable item is just not making that claim credible. As reported in the latest issue of Coin World November 12, 2007, a Cheerios dollar brought $9,999.00 in a recent Ebay sale and on recently sold for $11,500 in a Heritage Auction. For some reason, the phrase, "bigger fool" just flitted like a butterfly, through my young, naive little mind. You're jaded and cynical, you know that? (I had exactly the same thought although my phrase was somewhat more...excretory...) Coin World reported that only 5,500 dollars were inserted in the boxes. Also only 26 have surfaced for certifatcation This seems intended to suggest that the offer involves a very rare coin, with the attendant high value. But... if "only 5,500" boxes were winners, then that suggests that the chance of any random box being a winner is quite low. Hush now, he's hyping. And how many boxes have been bought, and NOT opened, still holding out hope, to NOT be disappointed? It's like Shroedinger's Cheerio Box, you see. Until you observe the system, the cat is simultaneously and neither alive, and dead. Maybe. You're not just bidding on a possibility, you're bidding on a classic thought experiment. @@L00K!!!!11!!eleventy!!!one@@ |
