Meh, that's something of the times that people couldn't see happenning at all. Kinda expected if you think about it, as any one of these altcoins right now could crazily pop up in price to 5k and no one would've known. At the time it was thought of as risky, a scam, etc.
Some people still think of this today, though it's much lower then it was at the time.
Also think about the chance of these

Bitcoin was just a "shit"coin back that time and the future no one knows. Now I saw Bitcoin with a huge status and valuation and a lot of "shit"coins out there selling for $.20 or less but anyway the opportunity might still be there, no one knows !!

No matter how we try we cannot turn back the time, those time people do not think that Bitcoin will ever reach this amount. And they are very satisfied and happy with their transaction back then. Though it is always a good thing to look back at history and see how Bitcoin had been traded in a very low price making us see how people made and missed an opportunity and learn from them.

Nothing impressive at all. A lot of newbies have already posted such examples of low Bitcoin price in the past. I haven't invested in Bitcoin in 2009 because I hadn't had any idea that something like this existed. That's why I'm trying to mine and buy as many bitcoins as possible. I spend a lot of time on bitcointalk and on other websites related to cryptocurrencies.

Interesting!
I wish I also been here at that time.
Unfortunately I didn't knew anything about online earning at that time.
That guy offered 15k BTC for only $0.20 = $3000 and at current BTC value it is worth $97,500,000
If that guy is still here, then he/she probably regrets for his mistakes (if sold the coins).
Past is past, everyone needs a opportunity and sometimes luck. Late comers as like me, will get better opportunities in future... REALLY?

Just like the pizza bought for 25K bitcoins, would be an expensive pizza now! Theres always hindsight, eh? but Bitcoin would not be where it is now without starting small like that, and thus if that had not happened, it would not be at the price it is now!
I remember reading about Bitcoin in 2009, and decided not to look into it further...
