I have just picked up a new £5 note with a serial number starting AA15.

I won't be greedy so the first person to offer me £10,000 gets it...plus £10 postage and packing.

Shame you've named a "buy it now" price, rather than put it to auction.

I'd have gone to £8k, but no way would I pay 10!!


So, for that reason....

A gentle word of warning, particularly if you're someone like me, that plastic notes can stick together if there's a lot of static around - at least the Clydesdale fivers I got last year did!

You can afford to save fivers?

I am willing to send it postage free if it helps.

I was going to flog it on ebay but there are loads of them starting with AA15 and nobody seems to be buying. I noticed somebody has bid £3.99 for one...he may have got a bargain except the postage is £2.99!

It was in an old lady's handbag. She probably won't notice being a rich pensioner.

If the new BoE fivers are like the Clydesdale one we got a year ago, you need to be aware that, whilst these notes are really tough, they are prone to sticking together, particularly if you're prone to static electricity and standing on a nylon carpet - I'm the kind of person who can give someone a minor lecky shock in those circumstances handing them a plastic cup and, had the person I was paying not been honest, I'd have lost £10 quid!
