    This person uses stolen and/or zombie accounts all the time. They pop up like whack-a-mole every week or so.

    They had a good price on an 1870-CC half. A fine for $3119.

    I was wondering if anyone else had ever noticed that. I first noticed them when a coin I used to own popped up. They are a real menace and need to be dealt with.

    I was wondering if anyone else had ever noticed that. I first noticed them when a coin I used to own popped up. They are a real menace and need to be dealt with.

    I actually contacted them. They gave me instructions on where to wire the payment. I replied with more questions and asked for more photos. No response. Everything smelled really rotten, including the message above.

    Another eBay dealer selling an 1843 WB27 "Shattered die" used 4-5 pictures of a WB27 that I own in his auction ad. I asked him, "Which coin will I receive if I win the auction?" as he had three different coins shown. He replied that "They're all pictures of the same coin." Then I said, "Don't bother sending me the coin in pictures 12-15 because it's sitting on my desk right now."

    He has since blocked me from bidding on their auctions.

    What did you report? Their active listings were already gone.

    As I asked previously, what did you report? There were no listings to report by the time you posted “Just reported…!”.

    I report them every time. Saw Trade dollars get taken down, but eBay still have not taken down the early dollars.

    Looks like it has been taken care of. The thousands of items under that user is down to two that look normal.
    Thanks to any who reported.
