20 coin rolls, let's shut him down

He's also selling single coins

Click on "report item," > "copyright and trademark" > "counterfeit item" > "counterfeit, fake, or replica item"

UPDATE:

He's back, this time showing an item location of El Monte, California. But if you check his profile He' still in Hong Kong.

Still using pics of authentic ASE's his current low priced ASE listings are:

    Already reported this very auction about an hour ago. Keep reporting.

    Edit: Sad that people are actually buying them. If it's too good to be true it always is.

    The whole worlds off its rocker, buy Gold™.

    What makes you think they are counterfeits? They are a good deal, but still above melt. Pics are real, and there is a return privilege. Just because he's a communist is no reason to doubt his product.

    What makes you think he's a communist? He's probably a capitalist. The problem is most raw coins coming from China are fake so why take a chance? Also, most sellers of fake coins will show a picture of a real coin to sell his product.

    250 unfavorable feedbacks in 12 months. Some capitalist vendor from a foreign country. And Ebay allows it. For the dollar.

    Yeah, things would be much better under Socialism instead of Capitalism.

    Fraud would cease to exist if power was even more concentrated into the hands of a few..,especially government bureaucrats.

    I’ll cut to the chase: why buy an American Silver Eagle, even if you know it to be real, from an overseas dealer if you’re in the US?

    That's an oxymoron...

    Bought one just to neg the seller to warn future buyers. always wanted a free counterfeit ASE, already got the refund. Poor counterfeit, note the sun on the obverse is not even round. Shield on reverse another give away. Won't even register at all as silver on the Sigma PMV.

    Sad part is people are leaving positive feedbacks for silver eagle purchases from this seller. Currently has over 800 auctions running, ebay won't do a thing, all about $$$$. Out of control.

    The whole worlds off its rocker, buy Gold™.

    Listing still up and now showing as “out of stock.” Has anyone read the comments for that listing? :s

  • They read on the description "one ounce silver plate eagles". Not really false advertising. Is deceptive though.

    latest listing was not for plated eagles

    His first listing also was not for plated eagles.

    At some point he added "plated" into the title of his second set of listings but continued to advertise the real mcCoy in his description, probably after reading about it hear.

    ASE's and AGE's and Gold Buffalos are the most common counterfeited US coins.
