<< <i>I am selling this collection of 10,000 coins for an old-time local friend/coin dealer who has gone out of business after 57 years due to his degrading health. >>
It would have been slightly less obvious if he hadn't used the same load of crap.
Russ, NCNE
The photos you see were made by a professional all those types you see are in the lot, plus much more.

<< <i>Seems his feedback was built up by buying $5-10 coins. >>
I'm betting he's using those hundred or so cheap coins as 'filler' for all the wheat pennies in the 10,000 coin lot. heh.

<< <i>I also love the fact that on the last auction when he was called out he claimed that he sent out the 32-S washington quarter to a 'lucky buyer' yet he is still listing it under the inventory of the lot. >>
Maybe the lucky buyer returned it (yeah right) because samthompson said it was a cleaned VF in the one thread here on the forums after buying it as a AU.

Even if those figures are true; care to address your 57 year dealer retirement story when we proved last time around that you purchased all the coins on ebay?

You're a typical eBay scumbag con artist. The only difference between you and most is that you're extra stupid.

<< <i>How can I be so bad if I allways offer full refunds? >>
That's a pretty safe way to rope in more suckers to your scam. You know damned well that 95% of people won't bother. They're either too embarassed to admit they got ripped off, or think it's not worth the hassle.
Russ, NCNE
Return policy is nothing if what you are selling is not represented as the truth. Thats still a scam.

<< <i>How come you can't justify all the stuff from the linked thread about the various coins?
Cameron Kiefer >>
what specifically are you talking about--
<< <i>Russ then why don't you order some yourself and you'll see. >>
Because I have a long-standing policy of refusing to to business with ripoff artists. Duh.

<< <i>The guy who retired, Tom Avery of century coins >>
Just preserving that so everyone can research it. Google comes up with nothing. You'd think after 57 years in business, something would come up.
Russ, NCNE
1. There is nothing to verify its a random draw.
2. I would return it no matter what.
Please supply a address or phone number for Tom Avery's coins!

Builds it up with buying, selling a few decent pieces.....now the bomb is going to fall!
Has anyone though of filing a fraud complaint with the Fed's?
<< <i>So who wants a free draw? >>
NOBODY.

<< <i>So who wants a free draw? >>
I'll go ahead and take a free random draw (Granted, pictures will be posted to this thread of the random draw, so you're aware). PM sent with address.

I am sending a PM for a free draw and I will post the result of my draw.
Joe.

Free draw?
Don't you guys think that the "random draws" are going to be biased? I mean, wouldn't he pepper the free lots to forum members with nice coins to make himself look good?

<< <i>How do i get into PM's? >>
Click on the lock icon in the upper left hand corner that has "1 new message(s)" or whatever number it is.

Can't you seperate the coins into denominations? Was your dad(?) so unorganized in his shop that an inventory couldn't have been taken?
No, you are selling 3C coins for $2-3 and hiding behind the cover of a 'random drawing'.
And I HATE when sellers say they would refund the buyers money.....does that include shipping (& ins if paid for)?
Oh, then the buyer is out shipping from & to you, what $5 or $6 for the priviledge of dealing with you?
I have been neg'ed a few time for that & wear it with honor, sell honestly or get neg'ed
Sell honestly, & even though you might have a return policy, buyer will be happy with the deal & not need to use it.
That being said, I'm always up for a freebie..........maybe 10,000 members can take Sam up on his offer & take him out of his predicament!

Good one Augie.
2-3 draws? Thats it? I hope you don't go out of business because you gave away $8-10 in coins.
