Bargain!

[Sorastro]

Once again, as I have mentioned in the dim and distant past, bargains galore to be had usually to be found on the backs of magazines.

The ones that get my goat is the Royal mint {collectable} newly minted coins. I have just come across the latest from the Charles collection once in a lifetime chance to buy coins {total face value £3:88p} yours for just £34!!!

If I owned a shop and priced my goods at 10 times their value compared to the shop next door selling the same items how long would I stay in business.

These coins won't {and never will be} worth more than their face value so shelling out for these coins is just a sheer waste of money.
My brother started his coin collection when he was a teenager, he past away last year aged 81 and he had a substantial collection, but he had already been told that his collection had in fact depreciated in value rather than increased I certainly don't think he would have got a decent return for all his efforts.

I've got one or two old coins from when daughter was little.
Hubby has a collection of really old coins from his mum. I looked on the internet a few years ago but couldn't find any which were worth anything!
Same with my boxed set of Beatles singles. Only been played once as I recorded them and played the recording. Guess what - that particular box isn't worth much at all!
Mind you I might just have another look to see if it's altered!
