    there is no reliable reporting mechanism, but we can all report and it might go our way this time

    past reports have been counterfeits. this listing is different.

    i went to the bottom and selected "i suspect a listing is fraudulent"

    i reported it for
    1. not being certified
    2. mismatched pictures
    3. not being a cherrios with enhanced tail feathers

    FWIW, the EXACT same 'coin/cert #' is currently being offered as a BIN by a different eBay seller.
