I saw an ad in the newspaper for old postcards. The guy's sister died, he was selling off her stuff.
I go to his house, asked to see the postcards. He hands them to me, I go through them and spot one that is worth $450 alone. I asked how much he wanted, he said $30 for all of them.
I only had $15 on me, I told him I would be right back.
I return 30 minutes later, he said he sold them to the lady who showed up after I left for $30.
I was mad, he was old, I told him he was stupid, the postcards had a mininum value of $1000, his sister is turning over in his grave. His mouth dropped open and his face turned white. I asked him if he wanted more money for the postcards, he said, I don't have them.
