They thought they were buying a piece of history but many customers now say they were ripped off.

I HAVE BEEN in YOUR SHOES!! I HAVE worked MORE THAN ONCE IN THIS LIFETIME in a “Sh!TTY store”, doing the SAME thing over and over.

It WASN’T MY JOB to rearrainge the MAGS!! It was THE VENDOR WHO STOCKS IT!!! Same as the BREAD, THE BEER, THE SODA. It is NOT your job to do their work, they RENT THAT SPACE NOT YOUR STORE!!!

Obamassiah is NOT ON EVERY PERIODICAL, and “work” you say I’m making for YOU is NOT YOUR WORK TO DO EVEN THOUGH YOU CHOOSE TO DO IT, IT IS THE VENDOR WHO STOCKS IT!!

Nice try noob, sorry about your shit job, but don’t try to take your shitty attitude out on me just because you can’t vent at your customers you have to wait on, OK?? I’m not one of them, and the sooner you realise that I’M NOT YOUR PROBLEM, THEY ARE, the better your recently new FR life will be.

We are not obamanians and yet we were ripped off for the rest of our lives yesterday...

When placing blame for this giant step to socialism, don't forget to include Pennsylvania and Maine Republicans who were responsible for its passage.

You mean the coins turned out to have a false front and were just as deceptive the “O”??

Being a bit childish in your action and the response to the kid who cleans up your mess. Grow up.

The ad does have in small print at the bottom of it that these “are not US Minted coins” or soemthing close to that but the voice says they are “real US coins” which they are....but....! Kind of poetic justice I’d say.

This is a perfect metaphor for everything that is to come during the obama administration.

According to the video, they were “sold a false impression and hidden costs”. The falsity of the impression has been apparent since at least 2004. Now he question is, how many trillion in hidden costs?

Do you rearrange the mags on your own time or are you being paid while you do this?
Do you have the same attitude when you have to sweep up everyday?

Be grateful for the people who give you more easy work to do. You could be digging trenches instead.

I've talked to a couple of Obama voters who have no clue what their Messiah is up to.

I call them Drive By Voters. They vote for the loon because they hated Bush and thought they were part of the 95% of Americans that would get a tax cut.

They did the deed, and move on, thinking the Messiah would just take care of everything.

Who needs reality when you have Obama and a Media that won't let him fail, even if he is failing.

Perception beats truth every time.

I noticed a FaceBook friend has joined a group, ‘ I bet I can find 5,000,000 that hate George Bush.’ I think this tells the entire story.

Lots of people besides these get scammed on collectibles

Rule of thumb: Anything advertised as a future collectible won't be.
