Simple enough. If that is an amount owed to you, then it is $200. If that is an invoice for money owed by you, that is $2.00.

If I were presented with that and did not have any reason to believe otherwise, I would say $2.00. Since your question makes me suspicious, I am going to make a wild guess that what appears to be a decimal point is actually a 1 and the amount is $2100.

It looks like the amount that has been scratched out is $2.00, as the '2' is big, and the zeros are small. They then re-wrote it below, leading me to believe they may have meant $200. Of course, the above number with a big '2' and smaller numbers (that aren't very clear) after that, may mean that they just screwed up the cents, indicating that is indeed $2.00

Still, I'd follow Chilly's advice, unless you have a trail of 'math' to follow in order to know for sure.

But, without any clues, I'd say it looks more like $2.00

Good luck, either way.

HI
I don't see any decimal point after the 00 so I'm saying $2.00.. BUT what looks like a decimal point could just be where he did not lift his pin to make the 00's so it could be $200. Would like mor info like what was the work for or part type.

It looks older. It looks like $2.00 to me. Reason has to be applied. Without access to information such as age and type of invoice, it is hard to conclude anything. If it were a bill from a garage for a cam replacement performed 10 years ago, then I would say $200.00 If it were from a garage and was a soda tab, then $2.00 Greg, pay up for those 10 soda pops you drank 40 years ago at the corner garage!!!!!

The answer is that the document is not very old. But it looks like it may have gotten wet.

This is the customs form I filled out for Kermit's T-shirts. I checked the box that said "commercial samples" and stated a value of $2.00.

They interpreted it as $200.00 or $200 and made him pay a huge tax on it.

Maybe Import Customs lost money in the stock market and are making it up on import duty...

Sorry that happened Stephane

Well someone on that side has read $200

So each t-shirts are valued at $100 and they're not even signed by Greg!!!!
