Lookie at this one that I was a underbidder on:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3902350575&category=41092


And this one that just got listed:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3904462899&category=41092

Same layout, same photo skills, same location..... I guess these cats are the same.. I have made purchases from the jet900 id and I have been very pleased with them!!!

I'm just wondering about this other id......

    the jet dude probably got too busy, so he/she hired someone to do the same gig as jet. I know benny had jets, but i thought jets had the sharks?????

    Same email, the dude is branchingout to get more coverage or help selling.

    This may be fun to watch. I wonder what it will realize this time, and to whom.

  • If I recall correctly one Ann Williams runs Jet. They frequently have some pretty nice PCGS coins.

    You click on "...see my other auctions" on the copper creek one and it brings up Jet900's auctions.

    when you're a reputable seller who offers quality and ethics in the same package, there ain't no reason to hide!! feel safe with jet in either form, fixed or rotary winged!!!!

    I have purchased several coins from Ann with no problems. As far as copper_creek_designs, Lucy I really can't say and I hope it's not another seller using another's webpage design. As far as I know Ann (Jet) deals only in coins and not other items. Sorry Lucy I couldn't be more help.image

    I have the feeling that something isn't right.

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

    just a too much coffee statement, soryy if i offended Lucy.

  • I contacted Ann this morning and she is in contact with Ebay about the problem. She thanks everyone on the boards for their concern. Good catch Lucille image

    if you check the copper creek "about ME" page there is a description, location and even a telephone number to call. checking listings, there are different item locations, so evidentally the seller takes consignments. if you plan to bid on their listings and are suspicious or worried, just visit the page and give a call.

    of course, we could hang our hats here all afternoon, do the usual forum "contempt prior to investigation" thing. that seems purposeless, though.

    the PCGS serial numbers for the coins in the two auctions linked are sequential...

    There is a problem with this seller (Copper Creek) in that she's using the same format as Ann. When I corresponded with Ann this morning, it appears that she loaded over 100 coins for sale yesterda using a program that Ebay provides, and somehow they got put on Copper Creeks site by mistake. I don't know if Copper Creek was copying Jet900's format and maybe copied something they shouldn't have, but I'm sure it'll be straightened out relatively quickly.

    hey Frank

    my bet would be that eBay made some type of a mistake, they will rectify it and will not explain it or except responsibility for it, much the way they sail their ship. if you look at some of the other listings for copper creek, the format really isn't even close to what jet uses. i can't see how eBay could have loaded it to copper creek because of that. also, if you went to the "About Me" page that i linked earlier, you'll see that the seller gives plenty of information for anyone who wants to look.

    perhaps i'm wrong here and i've missed the mark on a total BS scamming seller who committed some type of copyright theft or at the least deception. hold me to that fact, PLEASE. i'll make a formal forum apology and eat my helping of crow if that's the case. on the other hand, when will all the forum police crap stop already?? mistakes happen and it seems better to investigate at least a bit before assigning guilt.

    while i sometimes get involved in the indictment process, it happens way too often over here for my liking. and as i said, if i'm wrong and it's shown that copper creek has done something shady, i'll apologize. however, eBay fixing their problem and no explanation doesn't satisfy that.

    we shall see.

    AL DUDE - take a Scooby snack imageimage

    I hear what you're saying. I don't know how something like this could've happened, and it makes me worry more about Ebay than it does this seller. I don't know what the intricacies are of loading sales items using the engine that Ebay provides, but apparently something has gone awry and it's in the process of being fixed. I personnally saw the post this morning, sent Ann (who is one of my favorite sellers) a note and said - hey - here's what we're seeing, did you know? That's how the ball got rolling on her end and she sent me a note saying that apparently Ebay had put her coins on this other person's web page. Sounds like a fixable problem. But then again too - I can see where maybe some folks on here may have seen the same coins that Ann had offered and wondered about what was going on. In this case, since we're talking about a seller that's known to a number of us, I think the concern was justified. Now - do we sometimes go off the deep end? hmmmmm could be image
