someone may have funds sitting in their Paypal account, but cant transfer it to their bank for some reason, maybe bank account is overdrawn....so they get cash this way, at a price of course...0

I can't see the silver strip on the twenty which should show up in the photo. Also the paper doesn't seem to be falling right - it's usually the strip and the paper that makes fakes obvious.
I think it's just fake money: sold as seen refers to the lack of strip in the photo.0 -
If it was fake, why would he be selling it for MORE than it was worth??
Surely if he prints £100 in fake notes then he should be selling them for less than their face value not more0 -

he's obviously going to try to get as much money as he can for them but added a best offer option as he probably expected less. I still can't get my head around the fact that someone (a buyer in the UK) paid £120!! My theory is that he expects notes to be real and then pretends never to have received them. I don't think the seller would be able to insure £100 sent in post so would have no proof of postage. Buyer could just say that a blank envelope came.
In any case, the buyer must either be extremely stupid or extremely crooked

Will be interesting to see the feedback on this one.0 -
it doesn't seem like a fake to me, if people are dumb enough to pay £120 for £100.
You make £20
