SlavicScott Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 Actually got this from the cashier at the restaurant I work at. She thought it was Canadian, but I told her honestly that it was American, just old. (figured she could've easily read the date to know that it was 100+ years old). I traded her a quarter for it, so that is what I have into it, and that's where we will start the bidding. The question is, how much profit do you guys wanna let me make from it I will put it into a 2x2, and package it up decent, so postage will be $.63 US, $1.60 international. PayPal preferred, other payments accepted. Since this is a holiday week-end, I will wait to close it until next Tuesday, Sept 5, at 9:00 est (GMT +5) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SO let's see. Current bid: sac jfk wash x3 WOW! That's like 2.25 in cash. I'll up the ante a bit.

And the Yugoslavian stamps of course I guess if I lose this auction, I might as well finally put those stamps into an envelope and mail them to T_3. Let's see -- current bid T_3 : sac jfk 3 wash 3 roos that's $2.55 plus a Yugo stamp. I need to think about this for a while. I can't rush into things. I may be casting my children's inheritence to the winds. Must think. Must analyze. Must contemplate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may be casting my children's inheritence to the winds. Must think. Must analyze. Must contemplate. So back to the bidding thingy. I still have to place an order for some banknotes for 2006 greeting cards. I have a site bookmarked that has a nice selection in reasonable quantites and at prices I could live with. I just have to decide on the particular notes. I have been thinking of getting a variety pack thing -- everyone gets something different but I'm not sure. Oh yeah $2.55 is T_3's bid on this beauty. Plus some Yugo stamp or a rear bumper from a Yugo or something like that. OK. 2 - dollar bills; 4 roosevelts; 4 jeffersons, 5 Lincolns, the stamps I have put away for T_3; and two different business cards from my careers/businesses.

SlavicScott Posted September 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2006 They put a Yugo on a stamp? Speaking of the Yugo, yes I used to own one. At the time, I had a condo in Ft. Lauderdale with my daughter, and my wife & son had a townhouse in St. Louis. I used to trek up there to visit at least once a month, sometimes more often than that. That little Yugo never once failed to rise to the occasion. As a matter of fact, I once got stopped by a Georgia State Trooper, somewhere south of Atlanta. He refused to give me a ticket because he feared being ridiculed by his co-workers for writing a ticket for a Yugo he clocked doing 94 MPH. It was a downhill slope with a nice tail-wind, and I was in a hurry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I drove in Germany some years ago an old VW Fox 1977 (carburetor) until 160km/h and oll others drivers into autobahn showed me Even now I am nostalgic about this lemon yellow car...
