I bet maybe it belonged to Minnie Pearl and it had a $50 price tag on it and this person has the shakes and hit the 0 and it skipped, or not.

My husband is a knife collector. He told me that he once heard a conversation like this. Owner of an item asking a seller - 'how much is my knife worth'? Vendor's answer - 'it depends on what side of the table you are sitting on'. It's worth a lot more to the person selling it than it is to the person wanting to buy it.

Some people think that just because it's old, it's worth a lot. It amazes me that some will try to sell something and not even clean it up and make it look presentable. That's just my thinking, though.

This all reminds me of when my sons were teenagers and became "beer can collectors". My middle son was about to go in the army and I insisted he get rid of the beer cans or I was going to put them in the trash. He went on about how valuable some of them were. My comment was then why don't you sell them to that person who is willing to spend that much money on an empty beer can. A friend of his ended up buying them for 50 cents each. It's only valuable if someone is willing to spend that much for it. Kinda like buying Elvis's stinky blue suede shoes. :roll: :lol: :roll: :lol:

Maybe they should just keep it. Sounds like it is more valuable to them than anyone else. lol

Well, let's see what the person has to say. I just emailed him/her for more information and pictures and asked if the price was accurate. I would almost bet that this is a scam and they are trying to get email addresses to start sending viruses and infecting computers. This is how they do it!! Don't ask me how I know, ASK MY HUSBAND!!!!!
